seasonal mixtapes | deep melodic house 🌱

Country Classic

Tastebuds teased. Senses seasoned. Long-time friends Fernanda Arrau and Balam collide once again. This time making their debut on Pets, they proceed to refresh our palates with a whole new set of sonic spices. 

Taking off where they left us on United Colors Of Rhythm with Baila, the longstanding Spanish/Argentinian connection serve up 'Sabor A Disco'. Translating to disco flavours, it lives up to its name with a whole bombardment of acid spices and techno aromas. Slow roasted for full hypnotic effect, your dancefloor will be chewing for hours on this one. 

It's backed up by the equally tasty 'Dinho'. A hearty percussive strew of South American instruments, marinated in fiery Latin heat, it's another high energy example of the two producer's skills and strengths; Fernanda brings her warm, emotional grooves while Balam brings that driving momentum and weight. 

For added measure, and a very sweet final course, Musumeci brings an enlightening remix twist to 'Dinho'. Also making his debut on Catz n' Dogz label, the Italian techno trooper brings a completely different twist to the track with a breakdown that will leave you hungry for more. 

Flavours don't come much fuller than this. Bon appetite!

Sabor a Disco EP

my typical process for putting mixtapes together is meticulous and calculated, i plan the songs out in advance - and find the perfect moments in each track to transition or loop or layer. with this one i was struggling with the process feeling restricted in perfection. so i decided to just click record and let each track lead me into what comes next. this is the result of that, it includes a bunch of lovely melodic and progressive tunes. hope you enjoy xx
