Halishan returns to Bonzai Progressive with the superb ‘Circle’. This one follows his debut at Bonzai with the 2022 slice ‘Atom’ which was produced alongside Maxx Owen. Hailing out of Dubai, little is known about the mysterious Halishan, but we do know his music speaks to the soul and we’re delighted to have him back once again.

The Original Mix gets us underway with a deep rolling bassline and muted kick combination. Punchy drums break through alongside crispy hats and evolving percussions. The bassline takes us deep into the groove as mesmerizing melodies fade in. Those melodies captivate, dominating the narrative on the break before being joined by chunky, gnarly bass stabs in the final act. Heyspace returns to Bonzai on remix duties after his last outing here with a solid interpretation of ‘Sitheru’s Chant’ by Tali Freaks & Al Martino. Spending his formative years in the cultural centre of St. Petersburg, helped him form his own style of music. Combining new technologies with classical methods of musical energy, he gives the audience particles of joy and happiness in every song. On the remix here, Heyspace dishes out a much clubbier number with a pacey groove and sophisticated edge. Trippy melodies and deep rolling basses layer up as a strong drum section keeps the rhythm flowing. On the break, a more euphoric groove emerges, adding that extra level to take us higher and higher. Top-notch stuff.
