(Bedrock) BED97R
Formats: Limited 12” Vinyl & Digital
Release: 20.02.12

The buzz around John Digweed and Nick Muir’s 30 Northeast was intense last summer when it was released on Bedrock. In its original form it was a spine-tingling, fizzing, spiralling, big-room monster that caused a commotion everywhere, a hard act to follow? Most certainly! But John Digweed’s impeccable A&R skills have not let us down with his selection of the acclaimed rising star of French techno, Julian Jeweil, to remix this beast.

The Marseille born DJ/Producer has been setting the world alight with his productions on Richie Hawtin’s Plus8 label (“Baboo” and “Hermanos”) and Sven Vath’s Cocoon (his “Soho” track reached No.1 in the Beatport techno chart), so its no wonder that he has delivered two stunning techno interpretations that are powerful, subtle and euphoric in perfect balance. Julian Jeweil’s towering talent, on display here, most definitely mark him out as someone to keep on your radar throughout 2012!

For fact finders, “30 Northeast” refers to the street address of Vagabond in Miami, USA. The club that so effectively captured the energy of a John Digweed DJ set that it became his first ever commercially available live DJ mix. “John Digweed Live at the Vagabond”, recorded at the 9th Annual Bedrock/Creations Party at Vagabond Miami 27th March 2010, was included on the “Structures’” bonus DVD as yet another musical milestone for the label. A live mix complete with slideshow, it captured the essence of an amazing Bedrock Party for posterity www.thevagabondmiami.com.
