Release Notes:
John talabot is a youngster from barcelona with a
rather special way of approaching music. borrowing
his school's name for his alias and the most
diverse samples for his music, he produces
expansive and iconoclastic housey tracks. his
influences range from flamenco to nouthern soul,
from african music to traditional asian songs and
he's inspiration sources go from the profound and
sensual house of moodyman and labels such as sound
signature or kdj to disco music, chicago house, pop
or techno, whatever he likes. sounds like "a bass
kick and a sampler", he says us in his myspace; no
less. this young producer and tireless musical
tracker has the ability not just to find the
appropriate samples but also to conjugate them
wisely. in a great exercise of sonic inventiveness,
guitars, strings and keyboards are combined in his
tracks with rhythms and vocals with african
reminiscences, to give us his own vision of house
music; original and personal, but yet very
effective. cliché-allergic, songs like "naomi",
"korlee" or "afrika" sound cosmic and tremendously
emotional without losing sight of the dance floor
(that's what we call fat beats). his tracks are
organic, human, full of life, the kind of music
that keeps not only your foot moving but also your
heart tingling.
