[ ::.. RELEASE NOTES ..:: ]
............................

Jordan based DJ, producer Mazen aka Mazen Hamid debuts on Bonzai 
Progressive with the superb Vela. Born in Beirut, Mazen felt a 
draw towards music from a young age, listening to a wide range 
of music. His strong passion for music led him to DJing and 
ultimately producing. He was mentored by G-Mohris at Pur-Vert 
Studios before he started to land gigs at many parties around 
his city. He started to study audio engineering in Amman and by 
2013 he started his professional career in music. He's played 
alongside top jocks from all over the world and has worked with 
many artists in the studio also. We do hope to be hearing more 
from him in the future, but in the meantime, enjoy this fine 
release which comes with two solid remixes.

The Original Mix is a wonderfully rich and cosmically charged 
slice, driven by a deep and lush probing bassline, warming up 
the low-end beautifully. Chunky beats are joined by subtle 
percussions, with just enough bite to keep the rhythm in check, 
allowing the mid-range to flourish. Sublime pads and delicate 
arpeggios grace the construction. On the break, the sweetness 
subsides to reveal a harsher, acid laced sequence which goes on 
to take control of the groove. A top-notch track with a dynamic 
edge that will not disappoint.

Koschk returns on remix duties, delivering yet another sublime 
effort. He remains a firm favourite, with his brand of 
silky-smooth progressive house which resonates well among other 
artists and DJ's. With years of experience, comes the consistent 
output we've become accustomed to and he never disappoints. This 
remix comes after a fresh wave of remixes from a host of top 
artists of his outstanding Speak My Mind EP. He's produced a 
wealth of tracks for us over the years and we've no doubt there 
is still much more to come from him. Here, he delivers a much 
deeper groove, smooth and meditative with a gritty undertone. 
Tight beats lead the way, setting a platform for the contrasting 
elements to shine. Soft, melodic arpeggios and airy pads sit in 
the background as a powerful bass drives the track. Cool voices 
add character while that gritty, hypnotic acid line weaves its 
way through the track. Another gem from Koschk that is not to be 
missed.

Mmix is an alternative mix from Mazen himself. A much more, club 
orientated groove, this one retains the cosmic vibe and that 
same alluring warmth. Punchy kicks are joined by soft hi hats 
and a flurry of percussive elements. A deep, rumbling bassline 
bubbles up from the depths as melodic pads sweep through. That 
striking 303 line begins to fade in, taking over on the break, 
mesmerizing as the envelopes are tweaked. Super deep and groovy 
with a powerful draw, this one is a must have.
