DJ Kicks (Vinyl)
An artist whose reputation has long been forged by his engagement and musical exchange with local scenes and cultures from across the world. Quanticâs vast discography of electronic releases spans two decades, ranging from focused solo productions and intimate collaborations to expansive ensemble projects. Now, the multi-instrumentalist, DJ, composer and producer Will Holland delivers his DJ-Kicks compilation, which fittingly radiates friends and family energy.
Having worked and lived in the UK, US and Colombia, Quantic reached out to the many wide-ranging music connections he has made during his 20-plus-year career. âItâs not like writing an album; youâre at the mercy of what other people are creating," he reflects of the mixâs creation. âFortunately, the homiesâ submissions were of an extremely high calibre!â Gathering these artists' music together was a delight for Quantic, especially as he had personal connections with many of those who crafted them.
The mix bursts with unreleased exclusives and places the art of curation at its core, giving the listeners space to go and dig more of the songs and sonics which resonate the most. Will Holland includes a glistening breadth of new material, including new music from Quantic alongside another of his aliases Sobredosis, creating a mix teeming with vitality.
Beyond raising profiles, the mix encapsulates Quanticâs tempo-changing DJing style which, over the past decade, has built him a strong community of fans. âItâs got a moody start and end, but a big portion is uplifting and joyous,â he says of the DJ-Kicks compilationâs sonic journey, âyouâre going down a river and get off in a different place⊠itâs also a cool way to encapsulate, stylistically, what Iâve been up to as a DJ over the last few decades, while shining a light on people I admireâ.
This DJ-Kicks is the latest instalment in Quanticâs ever-evolving artistic trajectory, an accompaniment to those moments when the gloaming disappears into darkness. Will Hollandâs longstanding dedication to a full range of melodic and percussive expression alongside continued musical collaboration is what makes his edition of DJ-Kicks such a rare beauty.
