             Clubsonica Records opens the summer season by welcoming Deviu 
             back to the label for his debut EP. Based in Pasto, the 
             Colombian artist began his journey into electronic music 
             production in 2014 under a variety of alias', before eventually 
             settling on Deviu in 2020. Created as an outlet to explore the 
             realms of deep, progressive and organic house, Deviu soon landed 
             releases on Nick Warren's The Soundgarden, Dopamine White and 
             Purified, where his fresh sound immediately found footing. 
             Having made his Clubsonica debut earlier this year with a remix 
             of 'Zulu' by JFR, Deviu now makes a welcome return to the label 
             with 'Two Worlds', alongside remixes from Da Fresh and Erdi 
             Irmak. 

             The release begins with the electric vibes of 'Two Worlds'. 
             Energetic and fluid, it carries a sleek yet groovy quality from 
             the outset. Gaining momentum across the first act, the piece 
             moves through a series of catchy key changing arps and cosmic 
             effects, as timely stabs and driving percussive arrangements 
             push energy forward. The emotional narrative expands across the 
             second of two breaks, with gentle overlays creating a sense of 
             calm and perfectly setting up an emotive, arp-driven finale. 
             Meanwhile, the second selection 'Through the Darkness' finds 
             Deviu showcasing a deeper side of his repertoire. Remarkably 
             poignant, its warm shapely groove commands attention, moving 
             through rolling contours and rhythmic pulses, while tasteful 
             piano stabs and trance inducing melodies pave the forward. Short 
             and concise, glowing atmospheres rise across the main break, 
             highlighting the piano motif, before smoothly segueing into a 
             goosebump-inducing conclusion. The third and final original 
             'Beyond the Light' follows a similar sonic ethos and finds the 
             Colombian artist letting plucky hooks and glowing vocal pads 
             descend over warm beats and smooth hypno-rhythms. Metallic 
             melodies percolate across the first movement, bringing with them 
             euphoric vibes, before a break of soulful phrasing and tranquil 
             tones provide a bridge into a joyous finale.

             Making his label debut and providing the lone interpretation of 
             'Two Worlds' is Da Fresh. As a producer and DJ for over two 
             decades the French artist has compiled an impressive resume. 
             Releases for 1605, Suara and Toolroom sit prominently in his 
             discography, while more recent outings for Freegrant Music, 
             Movement Recordings and Perspectives Digital have continued his 
             evolution within the world of melodic house and techno. Now 
             continuing what has been a great start to 2022, Da Fresh adds 
             Clubsonica to his resume with a heady rendition of 'Two Worlds'. 
             From a deeper vision, the French artist draws on the 
             sensibilities of the original, working fragmented arps over a 
             bed of pulsating beats and sleek percussion. Tastefully 
             restrained, the main break advances the narrative with warm bass 
             swells and balmy atmospheres eventually giving way to symphonic 
             motifs and a smooth, meditative finale.

             The release concludes with Erdi Irmak returning to the label and 
             providing the lone interpretation of 'Through the Darkness'. The 
             Turkish artist would have to be considered a veteran of the 
             scene at this point, with over two hundred discography credits 
             across his eleven-year career. The emergence of organic house in 
             2018 proved to be an impactful time in Erdi's evolution as a 
             producer, inspiring him to champion the sound in his own 
             creations, and eventually landing releases via Nick Warren's The 
             Soundgarden, Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, Hoomidaas and Tale 
             and Tone. No stranger to Clubsonica, Erdi delivered three 
             remixes across a busy 2017 and now makes a welcome return with a 
             gorgeous take on 'Through the Darkness'. Taking inspiration from 
             the original, the Turkish artist flexes his free-thinking 
             muscles and crafts a version that moves further into deeper 
             territory. Warm, groovy and undeniably organic its chunky low 
             end, pixie-like effects and exotic percussive arrangements work 
             in perfect sonic unison. An expansive centrepiece sits at the 
             heart of the journey, highlighted by transcendent chirps, 
             heavenly vocals and glowing overlays, perfectly setting the 
             stage for a serene finale. A stunning remix from Erdi Irmak, a 
             rare talent who continues to impress, capping off a superb debut 
             EP for Deviu. Highly recommended.
