ICELAND'S SECRET SOLSTICE FESTIVAL
ANNOUNCE INITIAL DANCE LINEUP FOR 2015
June 19th-21st
After celebrating a successful first year in
2014, Iceland's Secret Solstice festival has announced its initial dance lineup
for 2015.
Secret Solstice was made famous last year for
patrons being able to party in perpetual daylight for three entire days. Due to
being held over the summer solstice weekend and longest days of the year in
Iceland, this means the sun never ever fully sets, giving a spectacular natural
backdrop and a crazy 24 hour daylight energy like no other.
Check the video highlights from last year's
event, which included Massive Attack, Schoolboy Q, Disclosure, Banks, Carl
Craig, Jamie Jones, Damian Lazarus, Mum, Kerri Chandler and more -

7, and many more as part of its initial offering for 2015, alongside well-known

offering is only an initial dance lineup, with a planned total of 150+ acts to

Andrea Fiorito – Voodoo Grooves Vol.1

Fiorito – Voodoo Grooves Vol.1
CYNO94
Cynosure
Recordings
Release
date : March 23th 2015 (Vinyl Only)
A Rafael
B1
Give Yourself To Me
B2
Brain & Butter
Andrea Fiorito is a celebrated artist with over twenty years
experience to his name. With releases under his belt on esteemed labels Get
Physical, Haunt, & Broquade, he now makes his highly-anticipated return to Cynosure Recordings with
forthcoming digital LP release - Voodoo Grooves.
In late 2013, Andrea
Fiorito’s suffered the loss of his uncle and decided to travel to South America
to seek out a new beginning and perspectives. The newfound musical clarity this
gave him led to the conception of ‘Voodoo Grooves’
“The album was recorded after my
travels to South America at my house in Puglia, Italy. The studio was once my
grandfather’s and is surrounded in 200 year old furniture and art. The
environment here was sensually rich, and fuelled me with a huge source of
inspiration for creating music after a long period of inactivity”
As a precursor
to the album, Fiorito delivers us a three-track vinyl only teaser under the
same title to give us taste of what is to come.
The opening track, ‘Rafael’, (the name of Fiorito’s aforementioned uncle,
and a tribute to the man he described as a ‘best friend and guru’) Is a poignant piece indeed, with stirring
strings sitting alongside a delicate assembly of pianos.
‘Give Yourself To Me’, an instant dance floor mover that pushes things
forward with tightly woven snare volleys that get you marching from the get go,
accompanied by a punishing low end, and the occasional guitar lick for good
measure.
The closing track ‘Brain and Butter’ is a propulsive tribal excursion
designed for twilight zone dancefloor moments. Save for the occasional keyboard
tinkles, the song is free of melody, comprised instead of a dense latticework
of rolling percussion.
Voodoo Grooves digital LP
will be released 6th April 2015.

Dance Spirit ready LP for Supernature Records
The California duo's The Sun Also Rises features contributions from session musicians and will come out in March.
Dance Spirit will release their first album, The Sun Also Rises, on March 2nd.
The California and Barcelona-based group are staples at Audiofly's Flying Circus parties, and The Sun Also Rises will land on that duo's Supernature label, following releases for Culprit, Suprefreq and Maison D'Etre.

The album features a cast of session musicians and vocalists, and incorporates a number of live instruments and hardware devices, including a compressor that once belonged to James Brown. Innervisions' Jon Charnis makes an appearance, as does Vancouver's Jay Tripwire and singer Shawni.
