Perspectives Digital’s place in underground dance music history is assured. Since its launch in 2010, it has consistently combined household names including Einmusik, Hernan Cattaneo, Quivver, and Miss Monique with a legion of emerging talents, some of whom began successful careers on the label. Beatport called Perspectives “one of North America’s leading labels”, while DJ Mag nominated it for “Breakthrough Label” in their 2017 “Best of North America Awards”. Remix competitions for Beatport Play and Sonic Academy enhanced a 24-carat reputation for label head honcho, Darin Epsilon, as PD now celebrates a landmark event with its 100th release. “PERSPECTIVES 100” revisits four classics from Darin’s extensive back catalog with remixes from some of today’s leading producers. Collectively these artists have worked with the industry’s most respected imprints such as Afterlife, Stil Vor Talent, Anjunadeep, Diynamic, and Bedrock Records.
Based between Berlin and Valencia, the Polish-born VONDA7 has overseen a career that has resulted in more than 150 production credits for Last Night On Earth, Knee Deep In Sound, Einmusika, Lost & Found, Sudbeat, This Never Happened, plus 2022’s “High Tide EP” for the ever impressive, Anjunadeep. Using her own art | werk label to showcase a swathe of production material since its 2018 inception, VONDA7 has found her music supported by such leading lights as Sasha, John Digweed, Pete Tong, and Laurent Garnier, among many others. Now making her debut appearance on Perspectives, her remix of 2019’s “Sonoran” is an intelligent reworking that transforms the spine-tingling melodies from the original into a driving club floor-filler. With a huge whip-cracking kick and ticking percussive groove, recognizable refrains float across the midrange while a complementary and cavernous bassline sequence makes its presence felt in the second half to devastating effect. The result is a triumphant Melodic Techno update that pays tribute to VONDA7’s incredible production skills and technique.
