David Durango
Super Market

Album DE 2014 on Soulfooled label
Dance (Tech House)

With Soulfooled #008 we welcome back David Durango to our Soulfooled family, with his forth- coming 4 track EP ‘Super Market’. The Swiss DJ and producer, who has already graced the rosters of cutting-edge labels such as Poker Flat, Dessous and NRK, uses this four-tracker to showcase his agile skill at producing unique sonic creations. The title track alone solidifies again this artist’s fate within the Soulfooled label, as he creates a complex cut, merging sleek studio production with a rawness provided by the sound of muffled voices and gentle scratches on vinyl. Expect staccato chords to meet a steady melody and echoing chords to get you caught up in this EP from the off. In ‘Bobby In The Hood’, Durango’s previous pen- chant for hip hop and his ability to blur genres is apparent – take heed, this is definitely a track deserving of only the best headphones or the best sound system, as each layer deserves to be heard, from the infectious synths to each hi-hat. In Badow, Durango provides a gorgeous melodic interlude. Off-beat jazzy percussion merges with ethereal notes to create an uplifting track fitting for a Balearic landscape as the sun seeps onto a terrace somewhere. In the remix, Nelson De Jesus crafts an edgier cut, focussing more on a stark soundscape, with a drizzle of percussion and a darker vibe bubbling under the track’s surface. Overall, this succinct EP displays not only Durango’s skill and experience but also the passion he has for his craft. Welcome back David!
