John Digweed ‘Live in South Beach’
‘Live in South Beach – Bedrock at the Treehouse’ is the seventh and latest addition to John Digweed’s iconic ‘Live in…’ mixes series, following the critically acclaimed success of ‘Live in Toronto’ in December 2014. With the release date set for June 22 2015, ‘Live in South Beach – Bedrock at the Treehouse’ is now available for pre-order, exclusively from the Bedrock Records official store.
Taken from live recordings of a mammoth 5 +hour set at the fabled Treehouse in Miami, the mix is aptly extended across 3 CDs and 41 tracks, enthralling the listener at every turn. With each section invoking a new tone, Digweed continues to showcase cutting edge underground electronic music at its very best, and validates his incomparable status as one of the world’s finest DJs.
Digweed’s latest opus takes the listener on a sonic journey through a perfectly crafted soundscape, blending multiple genres with ease. Featuring productions from seasoned veterans such as Nicole Moudaber, Robert Babicz and Alan Fitzpatrick, intertwined with those of up-and-coming producers such as Locked Groove, Gardens of God and Luna Semara, Digweed continues to express his love for fresh and contemporary forward-thinking electronic music. This love is translated into a collection of tracks that demonstrate an unmitigated understanding of underground dance music, a selection that proves Digweed as significant a DJ as ever.
Starting with the dark brooding sounds of BOSO’s Garden’s of God, and PHM’s percussion heavy remix of Olaf Stuut’s experimental ‘Spirograph’, CD1 then glides into an exposition of vocal-laden grooves. Progressing into CD2, an ethereal outset culminates in Locked Groove’s spacious techno adaption of Jules & Moss’ Head Juice, setting the driving tone for the remainder of the CD. The final CD sees Digweed effortlessly combining Drumcode techno with Bedrock’s own brand, finishing with an underrated Kompakt classic that is sure to reach new ears.
‘Live in South Beach – Bedrock at the Treehouse’ will be released through Bedrock Records on June 22, in digital format, as a 3x CD, or a limited edition 4x Vinyl package. Head to the Bedrock online store to pre-order your copy now.
