@matter
Melbourne’s Matty Doyle aka Matter, can rightly be considered a veteran of the Australian scene.
It makes sense that his productions have been signed to labels including Proton Music, Joof, Aura, and Replug, with the purist nature of his tracks being tailor-made for those imprints.
His passion goes deeper than just a love for music, and his philosophy, is one that understands that sound is spiritually connected to the bigger picture of life, as a whole. For the last 5 years, he has been producing dance floor weapons alongside another Melbourne native, GMJ. For proof, check their new release 'Emerge' on Balance Music, alongside fellow Australian producer Funkform. The two-track EP is designed to ignite any dancefloor.
Over the next 60 minutes, indulge yourself in the celestial sounds of Matter.

@powel
An expert at creating harmonious illusions of sound, Germany’s POWEL produces music which threads natural elegance, with tasteful patience.
He continually explores this duality in sounds, not only throughout his deep discography, but in his performances around the world. Famously, this includes annual pilgrimages to Burning Man to play atop the Robot Heart bus, a journey he has been doing since 2016.
Alongside his work with crews including All Day I Dream, Sol Selectas, and Do Not Sit on the Furniture, he recently added Balance Music to his impressive resume, being the first artist to be featured on our new Dawn Till Dusk imprint, with a stylish 5-track EP that perfectly sets the tone for what the label represents.
On this Balance Selections podcast, Powel effortlessly showcases that his production skills are easily matched by his expert track selection to deliver a deep and engaging mix…

October 15, 2019 Balance Selections 106: Butane
American producer/DJ Butane is no stranger to the underground dance music scene. He boasts an impressive discography released on some of the most highly regarded labels in the business, from Crosstown Rebels to Get Physical to Dubfire’s Sci+Tec. As a label owner, he’s the founder of three influential underground dance music imprints of his own: Alphahouse, Little Helpers, and his new Extrasketch project. His recent rework of Uone’s ‘Karnival Dreams’, showcased his engineering skills with a remix that was dancefloor-friendly and cerebral at the same time. Ahead of his Australian return to perform at the upcoming Chi Wow Wah Town Festival, the time felt right to get the scene veteran to host a Balance Selections mix.

October 08, 2019 Balance Selections 105: Joe Miller
Joe Miller is an English-born beatmonger, influenced in equal measure by heaving clubs, and the earthy melancholy of forests.
He grew up in Australia, where he learned to craft sets that are whimsical and left-field, evoking a sense of place. In 2013 he delivered us one of the most exquisite mixes you will ever find, a beautiful pastiche of tracks new and old expertly weaved together. Since then Joe has released music on labels ranging from All Day I Dream (alongside Jamie Stevens) to Manual Music and much more. Make sure to watch out for his upcoming release on our own Dawn Till Dusk imprint.
As expected, Joe’s mix is an adventurous 44 track narrative that will keep you hooked from start to finish.

September 20, 2019 Balance Selections 104: Stereo Underground
Earlier this year Stereo Underground released his debut album ‘The Art of Silence’, through Balance Music.
It was an 11-track journey exploring ambient, progressive, and deep techno. The album received wide-spread media attention, with the highly regarded Progressive Sounds calling it ‘aural meditation’.
He even broke new ground with his custom-built ‘Space Controller’, a unique MIDI device designed to control every aspect of his live performance. All of this has really highlighted just why Stereo Underground is so highly revered in his home country, and the passionate creative also dedicates his time to teaching music production through his popular BPM College.
With his years of experience, this DJ/Producer has crafted a special mix, which will stand the test of time.

Gab Rhome has an innate sense of rhythm, emotion, and groove. Both as a producer, and as a DJ, the Montreal artist sparks an unavoidable connection with the soul, whilst conveying exceptional personal style, and a sense of fun.
Since launching in 2013, the 28-year old’s career has taken off, with releases on All Day I Dream, Anjunadeep, Last Night on Earth, and Kindisch, and over the last few years he has consistently toured the world playing at festivals like Burning Man, Tomorrowland, and Nocturnal Wonderland, not to mention the various label showcases that feature his own productions.
Gab Rhome seeks to maintain artistic credibility without losing touch of the dancefloor, and on this mix for Balance Selections the French-Canadian stays true to that ethos, delivering a percussion-centric, dreamy deep house vibe…

July 19, 2019 Balance Selections 102: Nicko Izzo
With over 15 years of experience working in event promotions, Nicko is no stranger to the world of electronic dance music. In particular, he has been honing his skills at Barcelona venue LaTerrrazza for the last 13 years, where he has been a DJ resident, and an event manager.
With that in mind, the impact he’s had on the international scene in such a short time, makes even more sense - and with music already released on Hope Recordings, and Global Underground, you can expect the Argentinian born artist to make an even bigger splash in the not too distant future.
With a diverse range of up and coming acts like Damon Jee, and Cooper Saver, alongside more established artists such as Frankey & Sandrino, Robag Wruhme, and Will Saul, this is a mix, that is not to be missed.
