This weeks resident is Colombian artist Ela Minus and the guest mix comes from DJ and producer Romare.
Ella Minus is Colombia-born, Bogot谩-raised, and based in New York. Before making electronic music, Ela drummed in a teenage hardcore band (she joined that band when she was just 12 and played with them for almost a decade). Then, Ela moved to the United States, where she attended Berklee College of Music and double-majored in jazz drumming and synthesizer design. She uses only hardware synthesizers to perform, write, and record. She's just released her new single 鈥榤egapunk鈥.
Romare recently released his new album 成人快手 on the Ninja Tune label. His music has always sat comfortably in both the dancefloor world and a more relaxed environment, 鈥湷扇丝焓肘 being no exception. 鈥淔or me, the sweet point in music is when happy and sad come together鈥 comments Fairhurst, 鈥渨hen they meet in the middle, that鈥檚 what I try to create鈥. The release of 鈥湷扇丝焓肘 comes after a lifetime of being on the move for Fairhurst, he spent his childhood travelling constantly with his family as his parents moved around the world for work, before finally settling in the UK. This nomadic lifestyle would continue with his burgeoning career as a musician taking him off touring the world (playing over 150 shows in the last 2 years alone). Which brings us to 鈥湷扇丝焓肘, The new album marks a new chapter in Fairhust鈥檚 life with a move out of London to the countryside and starting a family, a move which has 鈥済iven me peace and quiet鈥 he comments. The new addition of his own home-built studio adds to this feeling of being content and settled, having worked from various bedroom studios in the past.
