Hailing from Saint Petersberg (Russia), the extremely talented Jiminy Hop made his initial appearance on our imprint in early 2021 with his single - "Tension" and soon afterwards followed it up with a milestone 3-tracker EP featuring "Summered", "Contemplation" & "Desire", an ode to the the melody-rich side of progressive house with it's bright tones & ethereal emotions. After garnering wide-spread support, we're thrilled to present our 54th release that features new remixes of the EP by label returnees - Eric Lune, Dimuth K & Anton MAKe.
Returning to the imprint after his debut EP & contribution to our 'Tales of Time' series in 2019 is Melbourne (Australia) based artist - Eric Lune. Ever since, he's been consistently putting out incredible music, most notably on Madloch's 'Sound Avenue' + '3rd Avenue', Guy Mantzur's 'Plattenbank' & the US Goliath 'Proton Music'. Revisiting Jiminy Hop's title track - "Summered", Eric Lune channeled his inner sun-kissed memories & elevated the track into a whole new dimension by bringing in as many euphoric feelings, highlighted by a 90's inspired lead & guitar riff.
A familiar name to the industry, the Sri Lankan born - Dimuth K made huge waves during the past couple of years with his awe-inspiring musicality, highlighted by releases on Nick Warren's 'Hope Recordings', Hernan Cattaneo's 'Sudbeat', Guy Mantzur's 'Plattenbank' & Eran Aviner's 'EDGE'. His initiation to our imprint came in late 2018 with a stellar remix of Ziger's "Razor" and soon followed up with 'Manu' a lovely downtempo track with 'Joel Fernandes' on our 'Tales of Time' series. Now based in Toronto (Canada), Dimuth makes his return to Juicebox Music with a dreamy remix of Jiminy Hop's "Contemplation", aided by a moody bassline, rolling mid-line riff & a hypnotic deep drive that guides oneself into a state of reverie.
Closing the pack is Kazan (Russia) based Anton MAKe, who's regularly found home in Cid Inc & Orsen's 'Replug Records', Mango's 'Mango Alley' & US imprint 'Proton Music', to name a few, with his consistently high quality output. Anton made his introduction to our label with a remix of Michael A's "Endless Time" in late 2018. He returned in 2019 with another remix for Berni Turletti & Matias Chilano's "Alumine" and more recently released his 2-track musical ballad EP - "Alya" & "Midsommar" in late 2020. Fast forward to now, Anton MAKe steps up to remix Jiminy Hop's "Desire", holding the proverbial torch that's been passed on by his fellow countryman. Taking a slightly darker route with a tougher & quirkier groove, Anton switches up the mood while he moulds the memorable melody into his own.
