Italian expatriate Michele Uccheddu (03SIDIAN) then takes “Anolis Rivalis” into Hi‑hat‑driven minimal‑tech‑funk territory: loops become hypnotic, the groove slowly envelops you. Finally, Otto Taimela delivers a tech‑house twist on “Dracaena Guianensis” again — smooth, kaleidoscopic and perfect for a late‑summer dusk into night. The result: a remix pack that is as varied as it is focused, technically sharp and atmospherically rich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2845\" data-end=\"3592\"\u003eWhether you’re drawn to mist‑laden dub grooves, seaside Balearica or late‑night groove machines, this is a release that rewards deep listening and the dancefloor alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/playlists\/soundcloud%253Aplaylists%253A2023817229\u0026amp;color=%23ff5500\u0026amp;auto_play=false\u0026amp;hide_related=false\u0026amp;show_comments=true\u0026amp;show_user=true\u0026amp;show_reposts=false\u0026amp;show_teaser=true\u0026amp;visual=true\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/vinylmattersdistribution\" title=\"MATTER OF FACT Distribution\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMATTER OF FACT Distribution\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/vinylmattersdistribution\/sets\/mltdwn013-vesus-mix-of-lizards-ep\" title=\"MLTDWN013 - Vesu's - Mix Of Lizards EP\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMLTDWN013 - Vesu's - Mix Of Lizards EP\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"riyl\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRIYL:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eArea, Torolf Stendik, 03SIDIAN, Otto Taimela, Meltdown Deejays, Finnish left‑field house \u0026amp; dub techno\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"meta\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Electronic \/ House \/ Dub\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meltdown Deejays\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vesa-Matti Kivioja","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55874057339228,"sku":"MLTDWN-013","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/5988\/9376\/files\/Vesu_s-MixofLizards.jpg?v=1762094376"}],"url":"https:\/\/spectrumcityshop.pro\/collections\/techno-house-electro-vesa-matti-kivioja.oembed","provider":"Spectrum City","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
