With a sound that favors depth over immediacy, he has a distinct knack for building atmosphere, something that’s earned him support from respected labels like Meanwhile and Sudbeat. His remix earlier this year of Eichenbaum’s Transcender, released on Balance Music, showcased his ability to stretch emotion across a track without ever losing control.

By the mid-’90s, while peak-time anthems dominated global dancefloors, Melbourne started developing its own dialect—a darker, more hypnotic sound rooted in restraint. At its core was a small community of DJs and producers, united by a shared refusal to chase trends. The sound they conjured was haunting: progressive but with a sparse architecture which created ample space for atmosphere. Indeed, a Zero Tolerance track spilled across the dancefloor with the tension of a coming storm. Uncompromising, yet cerebral. To supplement our deep dive with Gab Oliver (see link above for full feature), the label head compiled an exclusive mix filled with fresh label cuts released on the label since its 2021 relaunch. No nostalgia, just fresh pressure.

Since the pandemic, Glasgow has been carving out a fresh identity in the progressive scene through Skyline — a monthly rooftop gathering that’s become a ritual for fans of deep, melodic sound. Helmed by Graham Chalmers aka Twilo, the party pairs high-calibre lineups with five-star comfort, earning rare goodwill from artists and punters alike. It’s no surprise Skyline felt like the perfect fit as a brand partner for Balance Croatia. With the countdown underway to our sold-out debut, the timing was right to shine a light on the man behind the movement — and invite him to showcase his musical chops alongside longtime partner-in-sound and fellow Skyline resident, Andy Newland. What they delivered is a four-hour excursion packed with progressive heat and nostalgic undertones. Featuring tracks from Nicolas Rada, Ezequiel Arias, Gai Barone and more, it’s a delicious taste of what’s to come this August. @skyline_glasgow

By the early 2000s, when much of the electronic world was chasing trance highs and vocal hooks, Moshic Shlomi—known mononymously as Moshic—was charting a darker path. His take on progressive house was not just brooding; it was cinematic, steeped in tension, mood, and layered melancholy. Releasing early work as Argonout, Moshic made his mark with tracks on Cyber Records and appearances on compilations from Global Underground to In Search of Sunrise, showcasing a sound both atmospheric and emotionally rich. Now leading his own label, Contrast, he continues to explore the space between light and shadow, with recent productions finding a home on imprints like Bedrock and Bonzai Progressive. His Balance Selections mix delivers on the promise of the label’s name: a carefully curated journey of contrasts that never loses its introspective core. Featuring tracks from N-TCHBL, Stereo Underground, and Moshic himself, the mix isn’t afraid to drift into the melancholic edges of progressive house. @Moshic
