Long before their feature in our Mix of the Week series last weekend, the Albion Collective‘s Brixton Sun had dropped a message in the FatKidOnFire SoundCloud inbox. I rarely check the inbox SoundCloud (as a rule of thumb, if you want me; Twitter‘s you’re best bet – failing that; try me on email) but am delighted I did…
“Albion Collective’s very own Brixton Sun brings forth the first mix in their Elite Series. The Elite Series is a collection of studio mixes artistically designed and constructed to create a gripping atmosphere. Listeners can also expect vocal samples layered in and around the music to help build narrative. All in all these productions are designed to take the listener on a journey through music, using an array of genre and tempo. We hope you enjoy Brixton Sun’s story!”
Spencer and the rest of the collective have done well in creating a name for themselves – having caught the attention of OneFortyDeep’s Andy (and subsequently ours too) – and the Elite Series promises to both broaden their fanbase and widen the collective’s appeal. I’m delighted to be able to debut ES001; hopefully you guys are excited as I am to hear the next instalment!
ES001 is a meandering electronic exploration; visiting a number of BPMs while welcoming an impressive few genres. A seamless blend that delights and excites as only a decent mix can!
