Buenos Aires has long been a wellspring for progressive house’s most emotive talent, and Agustin Ficarra is a name that has been steadily rising through its ranks. Since rediscovering production in 2020, the Argentine artist has earned support from heavyweights such as Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Guy J, and Guy Mantzur, alongside releases on respected imprints like Sudbeat and The Soundgarden. Now he lands on Synthesis Recordings for the label’s seventh outing, a two track EP that captures everything that makes his sound so compelling.

The release features two expertly crafted originals, ‘Restart’ and ‘Jive’, each showcasing Ficarra’s distinctive approach to progressive house through driving grooves, hypnotic rhythms, and atmospheric textures. ‘Restart’, which we are proud to premiere today, sets the tone with deep grooves, evolving pads, and richly layered textures that develop organically across the arrangement. It is a patient, hypnotic build that draws the listener into a captivating progressive journey, rewarding every minute with subtle shifts in energy and mood. ‘Jive’ follows with a vibrant blend of rhythmic drive and melodic sophistication, delivering a powerful dancefloor moment while holding on to the emotional depth that runs through the whole EP.

Synthesis Recordings continues to carve out its identity as a home for forward thinking electronic music, and this release sits perfectly within that vision. With ‘Restart’, Agustin Ficarra delivers a progressive house cut that feels both timeless and fresh, the kind of track built to soundtrack those golden moments on the dancefloor when everything aligns.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Restart’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
