Luigi Sambuy

Spectrum are proud to present 'Green', the inaugural volume in the label's first ever V/A series.

Curated with care by the label founder Joris Voorn, the exciting collection fixes our full focus on tomorrow. The next-generation talent, the new sounds and spirits who are shaping and guiding our culture into the future; all together in a series that welcomes nothing but new ideas and perspectives.

Like a Spectrum of light itself, each edition will be a different colour, breaking down each element and wavelength that characterises, inspires and gives the label its unique identity.

It starts here with 'Green'. A forward-thinking place of freshness and new beginnings, home to an exciting range of talents both established and brand new and almost all new to Spectrum's ever-growing family. Stelios Vassiloudis, Amarone, Talal, gardenstate together with Hvitling and Yenzen, Carl Bee and Luigi Samby run the full dance floor gamut from heads-down hypnosis to rolling, unrelenting techno.

Tune-into the frequencies and expect nothing less than the full bandwidth as Spectrum unveil more colourways as we move into the future.

Luigi Sambuy - Florence Syndrome

Sketch owes its name to an afternoon of modular synth sessions meant to be...sketches, short recording exercises and musical tongue twisters. These pre-lockdown takes, pitch shifted into glitchiness and laid down on a sustained groove, found their home in a new arrangement. Compiled in isolation in a dormant San Francisco, Sketch was quickly bounced into a dance tool thought to one day re-open the long-inactive dance-floors.

Luigi Sambuy is back with a foggy, hypnotic trancer from the archives.

Could mix well with some cuts from Mano Le Tough, Carl Craig, Ripperton, Joris Voorn.

A classy, diverse mix from @chloecaillet

"My mix for Mixmag is really a journey through different sounds that I love that inspire me. I’ve been buying a lot of records recently, and really diving into lots of different sonorities. So there’s a lot of vinyls, my friends’ edits, but it takes you from one space and brings you somewhere. It’s got a club feeling but also a mix that can be listened to and enjoyed. I think it shows my range of inspiration – there’s my friend’s Afro edit that’s amazing, there’s a more Latin-type ‘90s record, there’s some acid, some house, some funk and then ends on a euphoric piano vibe."

In Session: Chloé Caillet

For "Here Until Now", eclectic producers Luigi Sambuy and Kris Berle take a departure from the sound they are respectively are known for, blending influences from Omar S, Moodyman and Theo Parrish. The two have a lot in common, both being expats in the USA and Mexico. They both made strides in their respective scenes, organizing parties, hosting radio shows and writing music. The result is a balanced tool for the cross-genre DJ, blending elements of lo-fi, minimal and sample based 90s house music. The single will be the first self-release of both artists and will be out September 1st in occasion of Bandcamp Friday.

Luigi Sambuy and Kris Berle are two producers from Italy and Norway respectively. Their paths cross at Burning Man in 2022, after which they initiated a fond friendship sparkled by their love of record collecting and production. In November 2022 Luigi debuted a new concept of events in NY called "Metronome", for which Kris was the inaugural guest.
