[PREVIEW] Jody Barr - Mera (Beatless)

Berlin-based DJ and producer POWEL channels his background as a classically trained pianist into electronic music marked by delicate emotion: a space where subtle percussion and ghostly textures drift between introspection and movement. We can’t wait to welcome POWEL for his debut appearance at Balance Croatia this August.

Emerging from Washington D.C. before relocating to the island energy of Koh Phangan, Aaron Suiss has built a career defined as much by emotional connection as dancefloor momentum. Now based in Thailand, the DJ, producer and label figure channels a melodic progressive sound rooted in feeling rather than functionality. That philosophy extends beyond the studio. Whether overseeing A&R duties for his own label 'Echoes of Time', championing new talent, or crafting productions that continue to climb the Beatport charts, Suiss approaches music as an act of energy exchange rather than pure entertainment. It’s a mindset that has helped shape his rise while keeping his perspective grounded. On this Balance Selections, the artist showcases a crisp sound that feels seamless. Featuring tracks from Dowden, Stereo Underground, Patrice Bäumel and more, this is a dynamic journey through progressive textures. @suissofficial Tracklisting & interview: balancemusic.com.au/balance-selections-lisandro/ ------------------------------------- Follow: Instagram: www.instagram.com/balance_series Facebook: www.facebook.com/balanceseriesmusic Youtube: www.youtube.com/@balancemusicofficial

‘Mera’ straddles the fine line between contemporary and classic. Driven by pumping drums and a dense bassline, the production feels engineered with precision. A shimmering, static-charged melody teases throughout before fully unfurling in the breakdown. An uplifting slice of progressive house that takes the strongest elements of past and present and turns them into something fresh.

Lisandro’s rise has been shaped by a deep connection to melodic and progressive electronic music. Emerging from Buenos Aires, the DJ and producer has built an international presence through a steady stream of releases on respected underground imprints from The Soundgarden to Perfecto and performances stretching from Ibiza to Miami. As both an artist and label curator through his Flug Lab platform, his approach leans toward immersive storytelling. That sensibility carries through his DJ sets, where flowing grooves, cinematic tension and understated emotion take priority over obvious peaks.

 On this Balance Selections mix, Lisandro stretches his creative wings with a two hour audio voyage. Featuring track from EMPHI, Anthony Pappa & Fauxplay, Kasper Koman and more, this is a dynamic mix that balances deep hypnotic moments with big melodic lifts. @lisandro-official Tracklisting & interview: https://balancemusic.com.au/balance-selections-lisandro/ ------------------------------------- Follow: Instagram: www.instagram.com/balance_series Facebook: www.facebook.com/balanceseriesmusic Youtube: www.youtube.com/@balancemusicofficial

The screws are tightened for a more forceful outing on ‘Blush’. The low end surges with the kick, working tighter with the power of an oil refinery. Ethereal vocals are woven throughout, acting as signposts toward an elegant breakdown that feels peaceful in execution. Yet that sense of serenity gives way to a dynamic drop that fires on all cylinders. Perfect for main-room moments that call for a touch of introspection.

The Beatless version of ‘Mera’ strips the drums away, allowing that exquisite melody to breathe in full. It’s a beautifully judged piece of music that can function anywhere in a set, from opener to closer, or as a mid-set palate cleanser.

Amonita weave live elements and natural textures into deeply atmospheric productions. Her work is both personal and far-reaching—drawing listeners into melodic worlds. With releases on labels like All Day I Dream and Anjunadeep, she has built an international following, and through her own imprint, Rubicunda, she continues to define a creative path that is entirely her own. That immersive world is on full display in this exclusive mix.

 Amonita will perform at Balance Croatia 2026. @amonitamusic ________________________________________________ BALANCE CROATIA 2026 FULL FOUR DAY FESTIVAL TICKETS ARE SOLD OUT LIMITED DAY TICKETS REMAIN On sale now via Balance Croatia website.
