Ivan Masa presents SILENCE Chart: ten tracks mapping the current melodic house landscape
Producer and DJ Ivan Masa arrives on Beatport with a selection that reads as a precise snapshot of where Melodic House & Techno and House stand right now. The SILENCE Chart is no arbitrary compilation — it is a statement of curatorial intent, opening with his own single Silence (Extended Mix), co-signed with LVDOVICA on the AXEPT imprint. At 127 BPM and rooted in Ab minor, the track sets the emotional tone for the entire selection: tense, introspective, carrying that melodic density that defines the more serious strand of the genre.
The journey takes a harder turn with SCANDAL by CALAO (Diynamic, 155 BPM), a tech house jolt that breaks the chart's linearity and proves Masa's curatorial range. The return to warmer ground comes through Nice To Meet You by Harry Romero on Rekids — an instant classic of functional house at 126 BPM in F major.
The melodic backbone is sustained by cuts like Universe by Ontonic (VOD, 7:13 min, 120 BPM) and Recall by HotLap (One Seven Music), both sitting in the 120–122 BPM range and built for the peak concentration window of a late-night set. Special mention goes to Optimism Is a Power Groove by Rico Puestel (Exhibition, 151 BPM), the longest and most boldly rhythmic piece in the collection, closing the central stretch with deep-rooted house energy.
