Out now on Crosstown Rebels: lnk.to/CRM267

Having become one of Crosstown Rebels’ key artists in recent years, Barcelona-born Tibi Dabo returns to the label this February with his latest EP, the four track Isla. Since debuting on the label in 2019, Tibi Dabo (AKA Max Guardans) has cemented his place amongst the Crosstown family with standout EPs such as Disbelieve and The Distance We Share, the latter of which featuring two remixes from David Morales.

Sharing his thoughts on Isla, Tibi Dabo asks “What to do with our time on earth? Find an island of joy and comfort, a modest retreat. A place to stay sane... I was feeling quite empty during our months of isolation, no influences and no external inputs. Then this idea of creating a conceptual island came to existence, an entity where I could play and put contrasting influences of electronic music together in one place. My little island was born, a space I feel as an optimistic outlook towards the future, something that I find hard to achieve.”

Tibi Dabo creates this scene perfectly as the title track opens proceedings, easing the listener in with delicate pads before waves of harmonious elements and finely placed percussions dance in and out of the track. Mothball then further emphasises the artist’s attention to detail as its lead melody and vocal-chops develop in tandem throughout. Brain The Cut follows, acting as a metaphorical signal of nightfall on Tibi Dabo’s conceptual island. Rounding off the release, Arp 8 delivers warming melodies atop of a subtle break beat in an exquisitely emotive manner.

Still in its infancy, yet mature in its intention, the Tibi Dabo project sees Max in his element; drawing on over a decade of playing and making music, perfectly demonstrated on Isla. Emerging from a new generation of multi-disciplined artists, Tibi Dabo’s refreshingly unique sound has also seen him remix for Crosstown Rebels head Damian Lazarus on two occasions. Determined and full of creative energy, Tibi Dabo thrives on producing music with no restrictions and, driven by his own need for exploration together with the support of influential industry figureheads, he has a locker full of fresh new music to unleash.

Taking inspiration from the iconic original sleeve design, this limited edition is beautifully put together by hand in Heidelberg, Germany – Move D’s hometown, and the birthplace of Kunststoff in 1994. Each element of the design represents a part of the chair depicted on the original sleeve artwork: orange leather, dark wood, brushed metal and the blue carpet. 

The boxes are assembled by hand and wrapped with high-quality Fedrigoni paper that matches the original design's orange leather upholstery. The title and credits on the back are screen-printed in white, by hand, using the original release's iconic typography. The box is inlaid with thick blue felt representing the blue carpet. On top of the four records lies a numbered screen-print of the minimalistic chair design, printed on the same orange Fedrigoni Italian stock used for the box, and signed by Move D. The record sleeves are printed silver on white, with slick type on the back and four versions of the original chair design on each cover. And finally, as the cherry "on top“, a cassette is found on the bottom in a specially designed opening in the felt inlay. 

This box is a project of true passion, crafted by hand, to the highest standards of quality in the very same beautiful city that is home to this exceptional artist. Each part of this lavish package is lovingly designed to form a grand tribute to a truly seminal record and its creator. 

Originally released on Source Records in 1994, reissued by AVA. Records in 2018.
