UPDATE: The mix of Niluxshi is still unavailable. We're working on getting it up on iTunes, as Beatport is for some reason unable to add it to their store. We apologize for the inconvenience.
The groundbreaking compilation series from Jay Epoch returns with 'Niluxshi', the follow-up to the #1 Best-Selling DJ mix to ever be released on Beatport. The concept of Particles is to put forth a DJ mix composed of unsigned material and release each song unmixed along with the continuous set itself, giving the end user the choice of buying the mix or the tracks individually.
The featured artists are then given the freedom to remix each others work, as can be seen in the release of the 'Live Zone' and forthcoming 'Strung Up' remix EPs taken from Episode 1, 'Mono No Aware'.
'Niluxshi' features the new 'Deviate' single from Buc Naztee (Habersham & Blake Potter) along with new music from Proton artists Rob Mooney, Stuart McKeown, CPM, Opencloud, Pole Folder, and Mashtronic while introducing a brand new face to the world of electronic music: Knix.
Artists interested in submitting music for the next episode of Particles should contact Jay Epoch.
The best-selling single from Jay Epoch's 'Niluxshi' Particles compilation gets remixed by Proton Music artists Stuart McKeown, Rob Mooney, and Danny Graham.
