At the 1987 WEA sales meeting in Miami, Elektra Chairman/CEO Bob Krasnow introduced his newest find, a young African-American singer/songwriter named Tracy Chapman. The Cleveland-born folksinger – who would have fit perfectly on Jac Holzman’s early Elektra roster – stood at the podium, alone with her guitar, and sang emotionally resonant songs with provocative titles like “Talkin’ Bout a Revolution.” Those assembled were blown away by Chapman’s passion and talent, but mainstream commercial potential? Not so much.

Krasnow, on the other hand, heard in Chapman an authentically original voice and personality, fresh and distinct from the current music scene. By the time the two returned to the annual WEA gathering the following August, Chapman’s self-titled Elektra debut album had proven an unlikely #1 phenomenon on the Billboard 200, highlighted by the top 10 pop hit, “Fast Car.” Ultimately certified six-times platinum by the RIAA, Tracy Chapman also earned Chapman her first two Grammy Awards, for “Best Contemporary Folk Album” and “Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.”

The album should have been impossible to follow, but 1989’s Crossroads proved an inspired, platinum-certified second act. Matters of the Heart was released in 1992, followed three years later by New Beginning, featuring the platinum-certified single, “Give Me One Reason,” a top 3 hit on Billboard’s “Hot 100” and 1996 Grammy Award winner for “Best Rock Song.”

Two further Elektra releases followed before Chapman made her Atlantic Records debut with 2007’s Where You Live. Hailed as being among the most powerful works of her career, the acclaimed collection fully ratified Tracy Chapman’s continuing status as pop’s preeminent folk voice.

Passionate by House & Techno since his childhood, Albanø has started mixing in 2008. Involved with several local crews in his home town of Saint-Etienne (France), he then created his own party concept Bisous alongside with Oliver Wood & Mood Gorning. These parties quickly got a solid reputation, with a national echo in medias. Season resident DJ for famous entertainment group La Folie Douce, Albanø is a skilled DJ assuming his love for a wide range of electronic music, but when he’s in the studio, he shows up other intentions. After opening his discography on Italian label Atum, he worked hard with his studio mates Moog Gorning & Bloody Shelby (now known as Pontias) to give more consistance to his productions. Since a few years, he’s found a smart balance between House & Melodic Techno, taking inspirations deep from his heart to add personal emotions to his natural taste for dancing music. His tortured textures and solid grooves have already caught many top labels’ attention (Bar25, Time Has Changed, Radikon, Dear Deer, Récits de Mars) before he joins famous French festival Family Piknik artists crew in 2019. Releasing his first solo EP ‘Odace’ on Family Piknik Music allowed him to showcase his unique sound trademark to a larger audience. Early October, his track ‘Syntagma’ opens up a new compilation on Several Definition’s label Recits de Mars, along with international promising newcomers. One more step in Albanø’s musical trip and an other opportunity to share his unique musicality with a worldwide audience.

"Over the last ten years, his works have become some of the most indispensable in modern dance music.."

Drop out "suggested an active, selective, graceful process of detachment from involuntary or unconscious commitments. "Drop Out" meant self-reliance, a discovery of one's singularity, a commitment to mobility, choice, and change.
And DropOut from the rules written for you.
