INFOSHEET

Italians love Butch, Butch loves Italians and Butch is a part of bouq. So it comes to no surprise that sooner or later an Italian artist would hand in some demos for bouq.records. The only surprise is that the first demo coming from Italy exceeded everyone’s expectations by miles and is set to be a big festival destroyer around the world – mind blowing hit material built for the summer months! The Italian’s name is Andrea delle Monache, better known as A.D.M., 23 years of age. In his short life he already topped the Beatport charts with his hit ”Aired” and has been in all the big name’s playlists such as Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Sven Väth, Ricardo Villalobos and Loco Dice with his releases on Sphera and Polar Noise. Now with ”Granada” his debut on bouq.records he is ready to get his name set on the map and will surely be blessed with a big success. The driving beat, nicely interacting drums and bass are bedded in a great and very subtle room of atmosphere and gets its kicks with the fun-bringing brass section combined with a dubby chord and a few surprises. Simone Cristini, also from Italy, made a fantastic trippy remix. The driving, spherical, groove meets the light-hearted brass section and takes us on a musical ride also including the sexy female vocal. Many small effects keep us surprised, but the song could easily do without. A unique interpretation of A.D.M.’s original without any loss of quality or effectiveness – big summer tune as well! Butch had to pay tribute to these songs which have been rocking his sets now for the last two months and made another hypnotising, atmospheric song, which in no way takes itself too seriously. The looped children vocals combined with this fantasticly propellent groove make the bouq.records A&R a sure-shot on the floor in and outside.
Big festival release, thanks for sending songs with an open heart, Italy ;)!
