Deviu’s remix of Nihil Young’s “Automatic” is now out on Magnetic Magazine Recordings, marking a release that builds on a clear sense of direction across his recent work. The track keeps the original’s melodic identity intact while adjusting pacing and phrasing to fit a more extended club format.

The arrangement reflects a shift in how Deviu approaches production. Transitions move with purpose, and each section holds its role without unnecessary layering. There is a noticeable focus on timing and spacing, where elements enter and exit the mix with control, allowing the groove to carry through without interruption. This approach gives DJs a track that works across longer blends while maintaining a consistent tonal center.

That same mindset extends beyond the studio. Deviu’s perspective on DJing centers on staying present and adjusting in real time, rather than relying on fixed structures. You can hear that thinking in how the remix unfolds, with subtle changes in percussion and phrasing that keep the track active without forcing attention shifts. It holds a clear identity while leaving room for interpretation in a set.

This release also continues Magnetic Magazine Recordings’ direction toward club-ready material that prioritizes usability without losing artistic consistency. As the catalog expands, tracks like this reinforce a focus on functional arrangement and defined melodic structure.

Now available across platforms, Deviu’s take on “Automatic” fits directly into his catalog while extending the reach of the original. It provides a practical tool for DJs and a clear example of how controlled decisions can shape a track’s impact in a club setting.
