Guy Mantzur unites all genres from tech to house, progressive to techno, with a uniquely melodic and storytelling sensibility. He’s co-owner and A&R for Munich-based label Plattenbank and has long been in demand as a remixer and producer for top labels like Bedrock Records and Moments. Chicola is equally accomplished and influential as a long-time vinyl obsessive, globe-trotting DJ, and producer of sophisticated sounds that draw on his pianist background and offer rich musical harmony.

The pair open with the meticulously crafted ‘Neon Bible’, a poised, ever-shifting cut built on subtle chord progressions and dubbed-out drums sprinkled with delicate percussive touches. Suspensory and hypnotic, it radiates a cosmic beauty that gently uplifts while drawing you deeper under its spell.

‘Galactica’ takes a more extroverted turn, its shimmering melodies and intricate synth sequences weaving a lush and luminous tapestry. The drums stay weighty and
elastic to ground the track while the atmosphere brims with hope and a refined sense of celestial escape.

‘Neon Bible’ is also reworked with an Extended Ambient Mix that lays bare the scintillating synth modulations, ever-shifting chords, and creative melodies that float you up amongst the stars.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Neon Bible’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
