John Talabot

Mathilda's Dream John Talabot EP edition

2009 was quite a frenetic year for John Talabot. From scratch he became one of the biggest hopes for electronic music scene in Spain. All thanks to his effusive house tracks in which Moodymann, J Dilla, Chicago house, Disco music and Northern Soul intertwine to produce organic and humane songs, full of life, and that make your hands and heart dance. "My Old School", his debut on the Permanent Vacation, gave him instant recognition in the electronic galaxy and James Murphy, Âme and Aeroplane were including his music in their sets. On Hivern, his own label, John Talabot released the now mythical "Sunshine", which has become one of the songs of the summer and Philip Sherburne has included the track as one of the best maxis of 2009 on Pitchfork (the website already states he's one of the biggest names in the current house music scene). In the meantime, he's been busy doing remixes for bands such as everybody's darling The XX, Glasser, Delorean or on Francesco Tristano's Aufgang project and of course his massive remix for Zwicker, which was also included on the Permanent Vacation Compilation "If this is house I want my money back " plus his remix for Al Usher, which was used by Ewan Pearson for his latest mix cd on Kompakt. So finally, here are his new original tracks for 2010: "Mathilda's Dream" and "La Ninya". The title track gets also remixed by Runaway's Jacques Renault from NYC. This EP is a first teaser for Talabot's forthcoming album. So watch out for the year of the bot! 01 Matilda's Dream (Original) 02 La Ninya (Afrodub Version) 03 Matilda's Dream (Jacques Renault Remix)
