pressed on semi clear green double vinyl, housed in printed gatefold sleeve.

satori returns to crosstown rebels with his atmospheric album maktub. here is a four track vinyl sampler from the album, including a live unreleased vinyl only version of ‘while i miss you’.
music flows through the veins of satori. no ordinary artist, he is creating deeply spiritual music through a range of instruments and production techniques. maktub, his debut album on the illustrious crosstown rebels pulls the listener into an exotic world, blurring the lines between electronic and meditative music.
at the core of maktub is satori’s desire to touch people with his music, and his vocals shine through from start to finish, as he guides the listener on an arabian nights inspired journey.
after the success of ‘imanis’ dress’ and ‘umama’ singles, satori’s album is a work of sonic beauty. this four track sampler features four diverse cuts from the album that will each beguil, inspire and enthrall.

the fourth instalment on dgtl records is an ep by satori, who delivers a record with three tracks that all bear his signature sound. this will be the first ep he releases after maktub, his well-received album on crosstown rebels. compared to the album, the ep is more dance floor orientated and thus right in time for the summer festival season.

giving us a preview of his forthcoming album maktub, satori is next to release on crosstown rebels with umama. the single features alongside remixes from three of the most prominent artists from today’s house scene.
demonstrating his incredible ability to incorporate world sounds into his music, satori mesmerises with umama. amidst a soiree of african percussion is a soothing hypnotic chant, all encased in alluring synths. italian legend riva starr’s jazzy take on the original, integrates the chanting vocal as a futuristic anthem. louie vega maintains an ethnic feel. his remix, alongside an instrumental, encompasses futuristic synths with a sturdy kick throughout.

after fergies massive >eye of storm / maktub< release, next up on his forward thinking excentric muzik label is the first offering from a new collaboration between two men of the moment, christian smith & reset robot, entitled >elixir<.
>elixir< is a driving monster with one of the catchiest and most addictive hooks of the year, instantly recognisable and is sure to be the highlight of many sets as it has been for fergie over the summer. on remix duties is mr henry von, who runs excentric sub-label rekluse with fergie. his >tribal rage< remix utilises the original hook, adds an interesting array of percussion, then takes the listener on a mind-melting journey full of twists and turns. gary beck (still on a roll after his massive >consumed< on minus) also takes hold of the remix reigns and delivers a deep and hypnotic workout that has already been included on christian smiths forthcoming renaissance compilation he liked it so much.

early support from: richie hawtin, carl cox, dubfire, phil kieran, misstress barbara, steve mac, anderson noise, mauro picotto, kiko, timmy stewart (jet project), mr henry von.fergie is back on his own excentric muzik with his first new original material on the label since blackeye-p / the baddness, although of course in this time away he has been busy completing remixes such as slam - positive education, smith & selway - work it and unkle - trouble in paradise, not forgetting his exit ep smash on umeks 1605 imprint.
