Here’s his description of the image ’Tangled’

“As a kid, I had only a negative perception of the word, ’Tangled’. Shoelaces, fishing lines, phone cords were all things which constantly needed de-tangling. As an adult, I love being tangled, tangled with my family, friends, the local community and in life in general. I only hope that as I grow old, I get more and more tangled."

His description ties in nicely with the emotional and immersive vibe that progressives house can create. This mix aims to capture the same vibe and spirit with layers of melodies and interwoven rhythms and a deep emotional flow. Each track 'tangled' with the next, hopefully pulling you deeper into the sound as it does with me. Just like life, it’s not meant to be linear, it’s meant to wrap around you. Here’s to getting more tangled in music, moments and meaning x Nomad_T.

Tangled

I grew to appreciate music as a kid, listening to Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, Duran Duran, Chaka Khan, Jan Hammer, Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, and many other wonderful artists. I really connected with the electronic sounds of the ’80s. I’d sell 7” and 12” singles in my uncle’s shop in Glasgow by demoing tracks to customers and cranking up the sound—falling in love with the bass, the melodies, and the rhythms.

Over time, I’ve come to deeply appreciate emotional sounds and percussive, hypnotic beats. My next generation of influences included Sasha, John Digweed, Nick Warren, Deep Dish, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, Danny Howells, Pole Folder, Ricky Ryan, Slam, and of course, el maestro Hernán Cattáneo.

I’m based in the Bay of Plenty, NZ, spreading the sounds of deep, hypnotic progressive melodies and electronic music with like-minded souls in the communities here. I blend emotion, rhythm, melody, surprises, and storytelling into my sets, and I’ve been lucky enough to play everywhere from late-night dancefloors in Australia and New Zealand, to sun-soaked open gardens in Córdoba, Argentina, and tropical bars in Fiji and the Cook Islands. As a wise man once said, “Let there be house.”
