Maxi Meraki has just put out an exceptional new Melodic House and Techno release on Embassy One records – a remix of the title track of the In My Place EP by Monolink, which itself was released earlier this year. Combining deep and driving grooves with the distinctive synth lines of the original, this new Maxi Meraki remix undoubtedly takes the track in a fresh direction without losing what made it so appealing in the first place.
🔊 Maxi Meraki Reworks Monolink Into Dark Melodic Techno
Musically, this Maxi Meraki remix of In My Place by Monolink is all about atmosphere and forward motion. The track is stripped right back to its essential emotional elements and rebuilt around a weighty, pulsating bassline, anchoring the song’s groove from start to finish. Elsewhere, the rhythms in the remix are crisp and purposeful, with subtle percussive layers adding tension and atmosphere without overcrowding the mix or drawing too much attention away from the catchy main synth melodies.
In fact, these melodies are arguably pushed even further to the front on this remix than they are on the original, having been reshaped by Meraki into something moodier and more expansive. Electronic pads and textures drift in and out in the background, giving the track depth and space, while restrained breakdowns keep the energy simmering throughout the remix’s entire four-minute duration.
💿 Driving Melodic House Tension With Maxi Meraki Remix
Overall, this new remix on the Embassy One label highlights Maxi Meraki’s strength as a storyteller within the Melodic House and Techno genre, his ability to create tension through subtle modulation and evolving sound design rather than big, flashy drops ensuring that the listener is drawn completely into the release.
In this sense, it would be fair to say that Monolink – In My Place (Maxi Meraki remix) is one of the most intriguing and distinctive tracks we have heard this year, its refined balance of emotional depth and tension ensuring it is perfectly suited to the Melodic House genre as it stands in 2025.
