Behind the Progressive House : Release Notes
A rapidly rising favourite on both the flagship and sister labels, Fran Garay returns to Meanwhile with another deep dynamic EP, enlisting the help of Diego R, as “A Ruined World / Closed Feelings” provides another twin-track offering of the highest calibre.nnAn Argentinean artist of rising pedigree, Fran Garay has quickly become a favourite on a variety of blue-chip labels after a 2020 debut on 3rd Avenue. Since then, a growing number of releases have found their way onto such leading imprints as Solis Records, PURRFECTION and the recent “Augmented 018 / FGA” on the best-selling Mango Alley.nnThe Meanwhile family has also seen a clutch of high-profile releases after an initial outing on 2024’s “Meanwhile Excursions, Vol. 4”, while the “Restored / Irresponsible / I’ll Be Better” EP arrived on the flagship imprint a year later. 2026 continued to show a deeper, more considered side to the Fran Garay production style with “Gero’s Melody” on Meanwhile Horizons, at the start of the year, as Fran now returns with a stunning twin track affair.nn”A Ruined World” opens with a chugging rhythmic backdrop, full of heft and gravitas. A deep sub-bass adds to the weight as a subtly arpeggiated melody floats into sonic range. Delicately building courtesy of steam-powered white noise risers, a stripped breakdown allows the central melody to breathe before it blossoms with counterpoint addition in the second half.nnJoining forces with a fellow countryman on “Closed Feelings”, Diego R has been a regular across the clubs of his Buenos Aires home while a production career has taken in stops on The Soundgarden, AH Digital and Proton Music along the way. Now making his Meanwhile debut alongside Fran Garay, “Closed Feelings” is another thumping rhythmic gem that provides measured dancefloor power. A stuttered vocal effect produces an intelligent melodic line as it pans the left-right spectrum before being showcased fully at the beatless mid-point. Hitting its straps once more in the third movement, a dizzying, buzzing lead effect adds sonic inventiveness to deliver a magical offering that displays the Argentine pair’s craftsmanship.nnMaking a further name for himself, Fran Garay lights up “A Ruined World” with Diego R opening the doors to creative freedom courtesy of the co-produced “Closed Feelings”.nnDirected by GMJ & MatternMastered by Fran Garay, Cid Inc.nDesign by MatternText by James Warren
