The Next chapter of the International Feel story comes from the warped, creative minds of Ben Williams and Sam Weaver, collectively known as Hungry Ghost.

This, their first release, takes us on a trip to Lagos via Köln with an A side ‘Illuminations’ that’s impossible to keep still to, whilst beguiling us with its depth and complexity.

Sam and Ben are calling the B Side a ‘Deluxe DJ Tool’, but ‘Don’t Eat the Apricots’ is much more than that, apparently taking its inspiration from the ‘enhanced’ fruit served at Cedric Woo’s infamous house parties!

Complete with remixes from the legendary king of cosmic, Daniele Baldelli and an abstract gem from one of the renowned Three Chairs (alongside Moodymann and Theo Parrish) Marcellus Pittman, this is a release for real music connoisseurs.

Loving the original of "Illuminations".... I'll definitely play it on the show the next chance I get – Tim Sweeney, Beats in Space

Illuminations is Amazing – Trevor Jackson

"Hungry Ghost's original feeds my appetite the most, but every single one of the remixes does what it says on the tin. Like Beedle's skank,
Baldelli's cosmos and Pittmann's nocturnal vision." - Gerd Janson, Running Back, Robert Johnson
