OUT NOW: John Talabot "My Old School" (Permanent Vacation Germany)




"John Talabot is a youngster from Barcelona and 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.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."

James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem): nice one! really lovely.

Aeroplane: Great release! Afrika is perfect to burn the dancefloor!!

AME: "africa" is the bomb, i believe

Eric Duncan (Rub´n´Tug/ Still Going): i like all 3 tracks
