Slap My Bass Up (Original Mix)

"Some years ago I stopped playing 1-2 hour slots, sharing the stage with 5 other dj's. I figured warming up the dancefloor had become a lost art - and coming after someone who wanted to shine through the use of very obvious and intense tracks was a nuisance. 5 different dj's - 4 of who would play the same crappy overused sound design popping everywhere from Tulum to Berlin.
I decided I would only grace the turntables if I had total control of the night, music wise - which would allow me to explore slower tempos, beatless grooves, analogue disco oddballs, and 30 plus years of dance music - and build the intensity little by little. It would allow me to create a musical context.

Somehow these couple of sets showcase this ideology. My love for electronica and balearic, and my obsession with house music.

First up is a slow, melodic widescreen mix of electronica, progressive jazz instrumentals, and William Orbit's ambient from the 90's that fit the balearic philosophy. The guitar and dubby sounds as main elements throughout the set.
A few tracks in, more Ibicenco sounding tracks pave the road for old school Hardfloor breakbeats, and into what I feel sounds like a post-new wave from Timothy J. Fairplay, before going into the subtle dembo rhythms by Léna and deep house from Roots Unit, with its snare, positioned halfway, as a continuation of the Jamaican sound inheritance. Stubb and Mara keep the dub feel flowing, before closing with a cheesy guitar new age rendition by Alan Parsons.

Second set pumps the bpm's a notch forward. 
Futuristic house music, but rooted in the past as a timeless testament of the evolution of house music. Lysergic synths from Gebby Dibson and Acid Pauli pulse against house drums and loose percussions.
Melodies and minds soar as Above the Clouds and Seven Cities color the skies before some acid house tracks create tension for the dancefloor. The set comes to a close in rave breakbeats and the slow drum & bass of Skanna.

In almost 3 hours we have been able to navigate from electronica instrumentals, ambient, breaks, dubby tracks, deep house, house, acid house, techier stuff, drum & bass and new age parmigiana, similar to what a full night of me playing would be. Playing different flavors, intensities and genres, but in what I believe to be a steady narrative of energy current flow.
Enjoy" - La Guardia De La Luz

Correspondant present the vinyl sampler for their 3rd label compilation. Following in the success of the previous two entries in the series, this latest edition provides a perfect snapshot of how the relatively young label has matured over three years, with contributions from a range of artists including big names (such as Roman Flügel and Chloe), close Correspondant family (like Man Power and Red Axes), and exciting new rising talent (including Bird of Paradise and Sigward).

With eight tracks, split over two records, Compilation 03 sees curator and label owner, Jennifer Cardini, displaying an even wider musical breadth than the previous two compilation incarnations, but still represents the undefinable yet unmistakable sound which truly marks out Correspondant as unique.

Correspondant Compilation 03 is due out via Correspondant on June 15.
