Westseven & Ross Farren - Compass (The Remixes) [XYZ039]
Release Date - 7.09.21
Stream - xyzlabel.lnk.to/CompassRemixes

Westseven will forever maintain a unique role at the XYZ imprint, as he played a key role in the label’s very first release in collaboration with Budakid. The Anjunadeep regular and Soul De Amina head is no stranger to the scene, crafting a stellar reputation throughout the years via productions teeming with quality.

We were delighted to welcome him back to XYZ earlier this year with his melodic masterpiece - Compass. He teamed up with Ross Farren, harnessing blissful vocals with bountiful drums for an uplifting aura. Originally crafted in the depths of the longest winter, we now revisit Compass with renewed energy and inspiration during this time of global rejuvenation. We’ve harnessed a roster of remixers brimming with talent and inspiration, presenting a set of remixes and edits built for soaring summer nights.

Enamour leads the line in stunning fashion, as we welcome him into the XYZ fold for the first time. The Washington D.C. based producer has established a sought-after sound through releases with Anjunadeep, Desert Hearts, Kindisch , and Rose Avenue. Enamour twists Compass to bring pure club appeal. A punchy bassline drives us forward, as Ross’ vocal work ebbs and flows as the energy elevates. With a dub version on offer, Enamour’s remixes are aimed straight at the dance floor. Stay tuned as there is much more original Enamour material coming on XYZ soon...

Curated house, hardcore, hyperpop, and other electronic genres. Take a look through my 200+ playlists!

I've been listening to electronic music since I was old enough to tune into the John Peel show on Radio 1. Peel first introduced me to Chicago House, Detroit Electro and Rap. I would listen to an entire show with my finger hovering over the record button of my 'tape-recorder' close to the radio speaker just to record whatever 3 electronic imports he would play each night. I wish I'd kept those recordings.
From the moment I first heard 'Roxanne Shante' I sought out everything I could ranging from Kraftwerk, Mike Oldfield, Kurtis Mantronik, Africa Bambata, Grandmaster Flash, Gorgio Morodor, Axel-F, Jean Michel Jarre and just about anyone who used a synth to make music! With the arrival of House in the mid-late 80's the likes of Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Steve Silk Hurley, Adonis and many more American underground House producers, the music had developed into a new, seriously exciting phenomena.
Music progressed at pace with House and Acid imports driving change, the UK in particular underwent an epiphany of sorts in the 80's and 90's. From Break-Dancing to New Romanticism, the music developed, finally morphing into the early genres of Acid Trance, Techno and Progressive Trance. Heavily influenced by American and underground Dutch and German artists and with the advent of clubbing and non-speaking mixing DJ's, it opened up a Pandora's box of new music, influences, sounds and styles. What that amounted to for me (and most others like me) was an ever-growing range of electronic music that was continually breaking free from pigeon-holes and mainstream pop culture. Electronic music had become the new classical music of a generation.
I can only say that electronic or computer music has evolved beautifully in the past 40 years and I love it as much now as the day I first heard John Peel play fantastic American imports.
I'm not anything more than a bedroom DJ and electronic music enthusiast. I have the greatest admiration for those who DJ publicly and seek to build a following or career from DJing, but that’s not a path I’ve tried to follow. I do love to put together great tunes, so for me using this sort of platform for sharing music is perfect for me. I do mixes both on my decks and using Ableton, as sometimes I find it easier to create a journey through that medium. 
As for making music, I’m slowly finding my way around Ableton in order to bring life to the musical ideas rolling around my head. 
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the mixes I post, please give me some feedback and if nothing else, support the artists themselves and buy their music.
