“Although I rarely write any music out of symbolic necessity, this album has evolved into meaning for me. “Cure” has grown to reflect some actual relevance to my existence. Written and tested sporadically throughout the last two years, each of these songs could now creatively represent specific moments in my life, recently. This curious connection led me to draw on the idea of presenting these eight particular songs also as a mixed set, and much to my surprise, sounded amazing after the very first time I mixed them together.

This is also my virgin attempt to create an entire full-length album. I believe I have been successful with my efforts to both wrap the music into a consolidated sound and to also tell a gratifying story. However, I am already even more excited about the prospect of writing another album, as I feel “A Cure For Loneliness” is merely the foundation and cornerstone for constructing the future vision of my ‘Saturated Sound’. This is quite a guarantee for the long-term Madoka fan!”

Madoka
Drift EP
MMM003

Released: August 11, 2005

What can be said about this one! Finally, “Drift” made its way to the masses and it spent years in the making. Trust me on that one. Finally this little gem sees the light of day. It’s various mixes have been featured in several sets including DJ So’s Soul Glider compilation in 2005, Mo Shic’s February Essential Mix in 2003, Madoka’s own Sounds For The Saturation Generation and was heavily supported by James Holden and Steve Gerrard. Many thanks to PVH at Deep for the original vocals and to Roel for his ridiculously amazing remix work (still his best work to date if you ask me).

Also, until now, it was relatively unknown that “Drift” was intially signed to a few other labels in the past several years, beginning with upstart-label Ready Mix in 2003, but the rights came back to Madoka after collapsed negotiations each time. During that period, Ready Mix commissioned a remix from Canadian producer Tone Depth and his interpretation was later edited again by Madoka himself, but these versions have never been officially released. Madoka’s edit of Tone Depth’s remix, however, did appear on Anna Maria X’s Believer 2 compilation in 2004 but was only distributed in Greece. Just wanted to confirm a bit of ‘Drift” folklore and clear up any confusion for the true heads and collectors out there :)

1. “Drift” [Original Mix] (9:14)  |  LISTEN
2. “Drift” [Roel Mix] (8:49)   | LISTEN
3. “Drift” [VoxStabs Dub] (9:14)  |  LISTEN

Madoka
MTTM EP
MMM001

Released: October 12, 2004

“I think it’s time for something different!” The flagship release for Madoka’s new digital-download label called Metamotional. Launched on October 12, 2004, both tracks immediately reached #1 on the Top Downloads chart on the now defunct EDMDigital.com, where they first appeared for download and remained in that spot for nearly a solid month. Both cuts signaled a dramatic departure in Madoka’s usual big room tendancies, with each gem taking some more deeper and dirtier directions. “MTTM” remains the most popular release to this day in the MMM catalog on Beatport as well.

1. “MTTM (Madoka’s Tribute To Mazzo Mix)” (9:52)  |  LISTEN
2. “Arena” (9:28)  |  LISTEN
