denis sulta with an 8-track double vinyl release for ninja tune.

denis sulta (aka hector barbour) has announced a brand new ep for his newly minted sulta selects off-shoot - silver service

incl. strong love is subjective remix

a story about a man separated from his group of travellers, lost in the amazon rainforest. he comes across a small settlement inhabited by people of a completely different mindset and way of living. they take him in and show him how to look at the world in an alternative way, which evokes an incredible revelation in him. he then goes off into the wilderness alone in search of his comrades, and everything is completely different to how he first perceived. this is extremely overwhelming and euphoric. he eventually finds himself at the top of a gigantic tree that stands tall as the sky, right at the crest of a majestic waterfall. as his journey peaks, he jumps from the tree into the water below. as he surfaces for air, things seem normal again. as is if it had never happened, but he knows something in him has changed. his companions are waiting at the bank of the river for him. he rejoins the group. as they head for basecamp, he realises there is no way that he will ever be able to express what he experienced that day. his journey is his own, and always will be.

ltd repress , for our final record of the year, we turn to glasgow’s man of the year - denis sulta. like a good chunk of the numbers family, he has earnt his stripes working at the coalface of techno aka rubadub. he has crafted two excellent twelves for our bare-chested cousins at dixon avenue basement jams and is beginning to carve himself out a reputation as a dj of some repute, expertly blending in the bangers with sulta-certified weirdness. denis is part of a new wave of glaswegian artists who are doing amazing things and whose music is continuously exciting us. ‘it’s only real’ created by sulta during a burst of inspiration one sunday, takes us back to a time when techno was intricately melodic but still kicked hard in the club. made with only the purest of intentions and a dedication to the art of moving heads and feet. support from four tet, john talabot, joy orbison, kowton and loads more quality djs.

denis sulta follows up the feverishly received it s only real on numbers with the first in a triptych of releases on his own sulta selects label. -nein fortiate- & -dubelle oh xx (jvip)- straddle the release, occupying the same sound and space for which sulta has become so renowned. both tracks are of course staples in sulta s dj sets, and have been heard all across uk & europe in recent months with -dubelle oh xx (jvip)- also an undoubted highlight on jackmaster s recent dj kicks mix. two stripped back, melodically driving tracks that rely on the age old premise of making people dance!

repress / remaster ...dixon avenue basement jams returns with a late-summer bomb tried & tested in the field with exemplary results.

glesga toons very own cream mac-wearing whirling dervish returns to the dabj fold for his sophomore side. after the massively in demand *sulta selects vol. 1*, oor denis is back with his inimitable brand of hig-end rollers.

the mix is influenced heavily by how i used to dj at the first party i ever promoted, named seismic, and another named monox which was a straight up techno night where i was a resident from the age of 17. and although it wasn’t my plan, it turned into a kind of tribute to the cities that really formulated me as a dj: detroit, chicago and glasgow.
