The 316th release on Mistique Music is out this week and it sees Nail Amond returning to the label for his sixth overall appearance. Julian Shavgenin aka Nail Amond hails from Russia and has been pushing his progressive breaks sound for just about a year now and has a great string of productions to his credit. His last appearance on Mistique was with a gorgeous remix of Michael & Levan and Stiven Rivic's 'Angel Dream' and here he presents his latest single entitled 'Victoria' which comes with remixes from: Monojoke, Digital Department and Atrium Sun.

 The 'Victoria' original gets underway with a skippy break beat pattern which leads to the introduction of a meaty low end growl which is menacing to say the least. The tracks framework is surrounded by a wide array of futuristic electronic hits which add an enormous amount of dance floor bounce to the production. The main drop is where the real beauty is revealed though; the smooth flowing wall of sub bass gets layered with sheets of soulful melodies which work perfectly with the chord changes in the bass line. It's hauntingly beautiful and ranks right up there with some of Nail's most touching productions to date. The first remix is supplied by Monojoke who is making his 3rd appearance on Mistique. The Russian producer has been making some noise of late with his new Telekollekiv alias and he provides a wicked prog house interpretation here. Monojoke has taken all the incredible electronic intricacies that surrounded the breaks original and scattered them perfectly around a stomping prog house framework. It's one of Monojoke's biggest sounding records to date and is also the only non breaks remix on the package. The next rework comes from Digital Department who is making his first appearance on Mistique here. Arseniy Somotov aka Digital Department has been making a name for himself not only in his Russian homeland but also in the global progressive house scene with his consistently good productions on OLD SQL and Elliptical Sun Recordings. Digital Department is equally talented at writing progressive breaks or progressive house and here for his 'Victoria' interpretation he has gone the prog breaks route. Digital Department has crafted a monstrous rumbling bass line with punchy breakbeats and gorgeous melodic sections which weave their way in and out of the composition. It's a great complement to Nail's original as it's a bit more floor friendly whereas Nail's has a much dreamier, morning element to it. Closing the package out is Atrium Sun who is one of the original artists on Mistique dating all the way back to the labels 18th release from December of 2009. Atrium's remix here is his first production of 2012 so he has been very quiet of late but he has certainly delivered an amazing interpretation of 'Victoria'. Atrium's mix brings all the best elements of old school prog breaks and for us it might just be the most emotionally satisfying mix on the package so don't miss it!
