DC Salas – When You Left EP [Biologic Records]

by Shlomi Biton April 26, 2016

We are happy to introduce you to the second EP from by DC Salas on Biologic Records, the label that he co-founded and manages with the French Producer Abstraxion. They celebrated their 10 year anniversary at the end of 2015 and continue to release a string of EPs to mark the occasion.

‘When You Left’ is an EP that overcomes sadness. Times can be rough, but it never lasts forever. This original material is complemented by two powerful remixes: One from the mysterious Cliff Lothar, who is supported by people as diverse as Tiga, John Talabot, Delta Funktionen and Radiohead’s Thom Yorke. The second remix is done by the Australian producer Inkswel (BBE).

Brussels new-kid on the-block DC SALAS has been getting much love since his emotive and flamboyant debut release ( “Peru”), released on Belgium’s Doctor Vinyl (whose team is behind the global phenomenon/documentary on New-Beat : “The Sound Of Belgium”), getting huge supports from Ivan Smagghe, Tale of Us, Breach, Maya Jane Coles, and Luciano. Not the type of resting on his laurels, he’s directly re-invented his sound, embracing a darker blueprint in the process and released tracks and remixes on a plethora of cool labels such as Kill The DJ, B-Pitch Control, Clouded Vision, Relish, My Favourite Robot, Correspondant or Marketing, and even co-founding the Biologic imprint with French cohort Abstraxion. As an active member of the Belgian nightlife, he is now playing the land’s best clubs and festivals and regularly travels in Europe with gigs in Berlin, Stockholm, Paris, London, Amsterdam & Marseille, to name but a few. He is also now collaborating with Brussels-based artist Mugwump (who initially remixed “Peru”) with several projects lined-up on Mugwump’s promising new Subfield imprint with !K7.

This EP is an important step for the producer as he prepares his debut album ‘The Unspoken’ which will be announced by Biologic Records in the coming months.

Supported by: Ivan Smagghe, Chloé, Jennifer Cardini, Mugwump, Manfredas, Golden Bug, Tiga, Danny Daze, Ewan Pearson, In Flagranti, Troy Pierce.
