In 2006, when the borders of progressive house were starting to blur and music started melting into the digital sphere, Balance 010 arrived with almost monastic ambition. Disc 2 is the heart of Balance 010, the warm midtempo arc that gives the entire three-disc structure its emotional weight. It rises slowly from ambient drift into soft breakbeats, glides through Cocteau Twins shimmer and Speedy J tension, and lands in that hypnotic space where Boards of Canada, Ellen Allien, Aphex Twin and Underworld all feel like parts of the same world. Critics consistently pointed to this disc as the most replayable, the most cinematic, the place where Jimmy's instinct for mood and narrative became unmistakable. It moves without forcing momentum, deepens without darkening, and closes on a fourteen-minute Underworld remix that turns the whole project into a pilgrimage. If Balance 10 has a centre of gravity, Disc 2 is it. CD2: Downtempo Mix 1. Miles Tilmann – Floating Windows 2. Miles Tilmann – Minutes 3. Steve T. – How Are You 4. Cocteau Twins – Blue Bell Knoll 5. Speedy J – Oil Zone 6. Adam Johnson – Kriegspiel 7. Adam Johnson – Version 2 8. Ellen Allien & Apparat – Bubbles 9. Boards of Canada – Skyliner 10. Peter Benisch – Desert White (Joel Mull Mix) 11. Babel – X-Equals 12. Aphex Twin – Delphium 13. Brandi Ifgray – Mono 14. I:Cube – Cash Conv. 15. LCD Soundsystem – Too Much Love (Rub-N-Tug Mix) 16. Saint Etienne – Cool Kids of Death (Underworld Remix)

Dowden works in gradients: tension, release, shadow, light. His productions move with a pulse, shifting from late-night progressive to deep, melodic passages. It is all very patient, an air of space and emotional detail that settles in slowly. What emerges is a signature atmosphere that is immersive and charged. Across two hours of shifting progressive tones, the mix offers a clear snapshot of how strong the global landscape has become. Dowden will perform at Balance Croatia 2026. @dowdenmusic __________________________________________________ BALANCE CROATIA FESTIVAL LAUNCH PARTY Barbarellas Discotheque, Pirovac, Croatia feat.

Oniris found his calling in the mid-'90s club scene, where house and techno first took hold of him. Years of experimentation and self-taught production across far-flung islands like Mayotte and New Caledonia honed his melodic, emotive sound. His breakthrough came when Laurent Garnier championed his tracks, propelling Oniris onto the global stage with a debut EP on Bedrock Records that cemented his place as one of France's most compelling techno exports. With his All Over Me EP on Balance Music, Oniris proved his knack for sculpting hypnotic, melody-driven house that resonates on both the dance floor and the heart. On this Balance Selections mix, the veteran French producer threads that same theme through an hour of soothing, afro-prog energy. Featuring tracks from Oxia, Ian O'Donovan, and Beckers & D-Nox, it's a solid-gold session of deeply affecting house. @oniris Tracklisting: https://balancemusic.com.au/balance-selections-343-oniris

The brooding ‘Driftor' is designed to nudge any DJ set in the right direction. An off-beat bass drives the engine, allowing you to comfortably sit in the pocket of its inviting narrative. Steely drums and percussion form a cohesive frame, while a bag of tasteful effects, samples, and stabs fill the remaining spaces. Once the breakdown hits, in all its subtlety, you know you're in the hands of professionals. This is essential prog, designed for any occasion. @haftmusik

Filled with depth, ‘Prism' shimmers and shakes as synths and stabs perpetually morph. The result is a continuous stream of sonic moments to lose yourself in. Thankfully, the dense bassline and drums bring you back from the edge of hypnosis, filling the space with an elastic energy as buoyant as a trampoline. Then comes the breakdown: bells dissolve into minor-key haze, half beautiful, half surreal: an inviting dream-logic that is hard to deny. @haftmusik

From music journalist to radio show host, Yohai Mor has been immersed in music for over 20 years.

Since their 2015 debut, they've honed a sound rooted in dance-floor fundamentals, inspired by artists like Cid Inc, Guy J, and Henry Saiz. In 2019, Nick Warren brought them into The Soundgarden fold, while Antrim's Or Two Strangers became a steady home. By 2021, a breakout remix catapulted them into Beatport's progressive top ten. More recently, their Mango Alley streak has delivered an impressive run of productions, highlighted by ‘Solar Symphony': a depth charge of a track that grooves with infectious drive. In this Balance Selections mix, Analog Jungs stay true to form with another engaging underground outing. Featuring tracks from Patch Park, Fran Garay, EMPHI and much more, this is deep 2 hours of quality progressive that never lurks too far for the shadows. @analog-jungs

Moving from Sri Lanka to Canada, Dimuth K has been quietly shaping a career defined by momentum and mood. His sets are deep and driving, often unfolding into hypnotic territory that lingers long after the lights come up. It's no surprise he's become a fixture at Canada's finest institutions (Coda, Stereo, and History) regularly stepping into booths that have also hosted the artists who shaped his path: Sasha, Eric Prydz, Danny Tenaglia. In the studio, that same forward motion carries through. His productions have landed on Sudbeat, The Soundgarden, and Consequence of Society, labels that champion both emotion and precision. His recent collaboration with Simply City, Resonance on Balance Croatia, underscores his ability to craft moody, powerful tracks that never lose their intimacy. For this Balance Selections mix, Dimuth delivers 80 minutes bristling with underground current. Featuring music from Gespona & Djolee, Zehv, and a series of his own collaborations, it's a statement set from one of the scene's most quietly underrated artists. @dimuth-k
