After a three-year hiatus due to the pandemic, Balance Music's legendary main compilation series returns for its 31st volume with an absolute stunner courtesy of UK DJ and producer, Tim Green. As well as some quite remarkable exclusive original productions, he also includes eight of his own edits in this expansive mix. From the blissful opening of Tim's own "Time Doesn't Have to Heal", this is a deeply sensual mix. From pared-back, ethereal, slow-moving beginnings, the mix picks up emotional pace with the delicate guitar arpeggios of Ranta's "Valor", and a tribal lilt in the groove creates urgency in Travertia's "Auwald". His edit of Serious Dancers "Callahan" injects heavenly optimism with its deft piano lines. The playful, mystical, swung melodies of Synesthesia's "Obbie" segue perfectly into the gently spine-tingling "Playces" by mredrollo, shifting the gears up once again around the 45-minute mark as the mix begins its "come-up" phase. His own "Eteri" is one of the mix's true highlights; a brooding, chugging stunner led by a driving bassline and the beautifully melancholic sequence a chime melody. Slang & Technodreamer's "Pad Destroyer (mredrollo Remix)" lays on a stirring string arrangement and brings levity with it, bringing disc one to a magical close (in the physical version). More Tim Green exclusives form standout moments in the second half: "It's Only Lightning"; is a rush-inducing whirl of tingly synth melody, and the dark driving trance-tinge of "Monster It". His edit of J'EAN's 'STAAHP' seethes with dubby techno energy, urging us towards his sumptuous collaboration with Sebastien Leger, "Duel" to begin the killer crescendo that rounds this mix off. His new remix of Underworld's classic' "Two Months Off" is a tremendous and respectful rework, the lilting guitars, and soft tones of his edit of Axel Boman's "Chestunt Heartsprite" are a pure delight, and the sumptuous piano chords of his edit of Deividas Bagdanov's "Champagne" is a fittingly beautiful ending. Double-CD features: Tim Green, Elysée, Frank Hellmond, Matthias Vogt, Ranta, Travertia, Serious Dancers, Kamilo Sanclemente, Maik Loewen, Rays Moodymood, Synesthesia, mredrollo, Aske Izan, Jimpster, Slang & Technodreamer, mredrollo, Jamie Stevens, Zone+, Dub Taylor, J'EAN,Hraach, Sébastien Léger & Tim Green, Underworld, Alex Boman, and Deividas Bagdanov.

Tim Green returns to Cocoon with his atmospheric and emotive album titled Her Future Ghost. Surprisingly, after all this time, this 11-track production is his first ever album in his career. Her Future Ghost is effectively composed similar to an electronic romantic film soundtrack: "My concept and direction for Her Future Ghost was to write a film score for a film that doesn't actually exist." says Tim. "As an avid film score lover, I wanted to create a body of work that took certain traits from common film score practices. For example, different themes that repeat throughout, like character themes that evolve and mutate. As well as a narrative and story that develops through the music. In my mind the story is set in the future, based around two people, a couple. It based on another planet, a planet so distorted and corrupted in comparison to the world we know now. Essentially they are trying to flee and stay alive in a future society where it is impossible to stay under the radar, where they have to go to extreme lengths not be caught and put into the same system and society as everyone else on this planet." The album concept was further influenced by the work of Ahmed Emad Eldin, an Egyptian digital artist who is best known for his design on Pink Floyd's 2014 album The Endless River. Tim reached out personally to the artist, and the two collaborated on the cover art for Her Future Ghost. Tim first made his production debut on four:twenty in 2006, going on to release on Dirtybird and Get Physical, before Cocoon tapped the young producer for his first EP on the label in 2011 (COR 088EP). Whilst the prolific studio head has continued to experiment on other respected labels, Cocoon and Sven Vath have helped Tim's productions reach the biggest dancefloors in Ibiza and across the globe. A fiery live DJ, Green has been tapped by Sven Vath to play at Cocoon events around the globe as well as solo at some of the world's most respected clubs. Whilst Tim Green's prowess at moving dancefloors was never in question, the release of Her Future Ghost shows the talented producer spreading his wings and pushing himself to fulfill his creative potential -- this is just the beginning of a new and exciting chapter of Green's career.

GPM 344EP
|
Tim Green presents Only Time Remains EP. The fantastic original, "Only Time Remains", finds the artist in a melodic mood, with his seductive, rolling beats all overlaid with churchy chords and a grand atmosphere. The bass is big and bold and angelic vocals lend a hypnotic feel. The remix of Junge Junge's "Beautiful Girl" featuring Kyle Pearce shows Green adding his own unique flavors to the track. The result is a tantalizing nine minute affair that slowly unfolds and sucks you deep into Green's spacious and grand world of smeared pads, tender melodies and subtly rising vocals.

COR 135EP
|
Tim Green returns with his third release for Cocoon Recordings, completing a trilogy of ultra-deep, emotional, and perfectly programmed electronic music. "Among Wolves," one of Green's most dramatic productions yet, exemplifies his highly musical way of combining supreme beats and massive basslines with deep melodies. "Over The Water" is a bit more relaxed without losing any emotion or drama.

COR 128EP
|
London-based Tim Green delivers his fifth release on Cocoon Recordings, solidifying his status as one of the few artists who reflects label's sound -- minimal techno with the right amount of energy. Never too melodic or too intellectual, Green fights against simple, boring loop arrangements with dodgy one-note basslines. Perfect for both dancers and listeners. Here, "Eclipse" and "Thieves" are big productions with massive melody parts packed in a minimal cover. His beats and bass-programing are spot-on and make his compositions complete. Heavy, colorful, perfect. The right sound for open-air festivals; hedonistic music in a sentimental mood.

COR 111EP
|
Tim Green has released music on labels such as Four:Twenty, Get Physical, and Dirty Bird. His new Cocoon production will be his third one, which almost makes them his new musical home-base. With "Don't Like Me," Green presents a collage of the current sound at Cocoon Recordings. One can feel the funkiness of producers like Adam Port here and the deepness of someone like Julien Bracht at the same time. And for everybody who wants it more crazy and spaced-out, Tim Green gives you "Humming Syrup." Although outfitted with a sweet name, this tune is solid freaky business.

COR 088EP
|
Tim Green from the South of England has released on Get Physical, Trapez and Four:Twenty Recordings. On his debut EP, Green presents the whole stylistic bandwidth that modern floorfillers can have. For almost ten minutes, "Lemon" oscillates between a full-frontal percussion assault, fragmented deep house vocals and Detroit-influenced harmonies. "Jimmy Rave Up" is a dark, pushing runner that proves Green's wealth of variants once again. "Dodjo" forms an intersection between tropical calypso sounds and machine-like strictness -- an unforgettable track.

IFREAK 018EP

Tim Green's latest strike started to hit the floors in December '09, when his second single Lone Time came out. People STILL go nuts when this house tune is dropped! 2010 looks set to be another huge year of growth for him. "Iotan" is deep, funky, melodic and warm the whole way through, constantly guided by a splendid specimen of a bass line! "Crispy Chair" shows his more minimalistic techno side by hitting you hard with this hypnotic groove monster.
