Premiere: Darin Epsilon, Alexandros Djkevingr & Greg Ignatovich – Thanatos (Modeplex Remix)

July 22, 2021

For the 88th release on Darin Epsilon’s Perspectives Digital, Alexandros Djkevingr & Greg Ignatovich from Greece join forces with the iconic label head to create the mythical “Thanatos”.

Established DJs in their own rights, Greg Ignatovich’s Russian heritage and Alexandros Djkevingr’s Swedish origins, came together in Thessaloniki to create a powerful partnership. Successful in their own rights in clubs across their homeland and beyond, the duo’s production relationship has seen a panoply of high-profile releases on the likes of Diynamic, Ellum Audio, Katermukke, Renaissance, Parquet, and Beatfreak Recordings. Combining with Darin Epsilon, the trio’s “Thanatos” is fueled by a chunky rolling groove and immaculately syncopated woodblock percussion. Before long a hefty bassline makes an entrance while a cascading arpeggio lights up proceedings with a glittering sonic shower. Coming to fore in a rousing breakdown crescendo, the track erupts into its second half in a dazzling dancefloor powerhouse of coruscating synth patterns to reveal a perfect antidote for the winter gloom and warm summer months ahead.

Modeplex is a German artist with a rich musical history to his name. A veteran of over 400 production credits stretching back more than five years. A unique approach to his craft, harnessing emotion and taking “inspiration from everyday life” has given Modeplex the ability to produce a distinctive sound that has seen his work featured on a wealth of blue-chip imprints. Steyoyoke, Beatfreak Recordings, and the hugely successful Timeless Moment have been renowned vehicles to transport the Modeplex sound to new and established fanbases alike. Using his production prowess on a scintillating remix of “Thanatos”, a glorious array of new synth motifs echoes the chord progression in the original track’s post-breakdown denouement. Behind a driving beat and rolling groove, familiar refrains come flooding through the mid-range as the emotive chord structure and running bassline sequence creates a vibrant arrangement for “Thanatos” to exude new confidence.
