Damian Lazarus curates the third SOULS compilation on Crosstown Rebels’ sibling label Rebellion. Comprised of four tracks, transcending electronica, tech house and progressive house, Rebellion presents SOULS Vol.3 features the production talents of Airrica, Lorenzo De Blanck, Capoon and Bartolomeo.
Rising star Airrica opens the V/A with the playful Defect. Blending bleeps and rapid-fire claps with a warbling synthline and alien-like vocals, it’s a bouncy number that’s perfect for a peak-time dancefloor. Italian DJ and producer Lorenzo De Blanck whips up the pace with Addiction. Tight kickdrums and a trumpet-led melody wind through the track, building an instant mood-lifter. On Emma, Belgian talent Capoon offers a slow-buring, more ambient piece. Ethereal vocals glide through the soundscape before a huge synthline swoops in and switches up the vibe. Bartolomeo completes the V/A with Isla Del Rosario, a funky track brimming with organic percussion and complimented by a Spanish vocal that dominates the track. Cinematic chords add a hypnotic feel, evolving into a cosmic, club-driven cut.
US-born Airrica cut her teeth into DJing in Tulum, finessing her skills as a selector and crafting a sound of her own from the booth. From Mexico to The White Isle, she has gone on to support Artbat, Damian Lazurus, me and many more. In the studio, she produces lush and loud house music, stitching rumbling basslines between hypnotic grooves. Italian DJ, producer and vinyl head Lorenzo De Blanck has made his mark on the global electronic scene with several releases on Moon Harbour, Hottrax and Saved Records, among others. Remixes for Virginia Lazzarini, Detlef and Ohm Guru feature in his back catalogue. Antwerp-based Capoon draws inspiration from emotion rather than function, making music with a palpable mood and story-telling aesthetic. Releases on Human By Default, MoBlack Records and more display his thoughtful approach. Engineer and tour manager for label-head Damian Lazarus, Italian artist Bartolomeo is a classically trained musician with a meticulous attention to detail that is evident across his electronic material. Minimal and deep house tracks feature in his discography, with appearances across Hot Creations’ Hot Waves, Crosstown Rebels, Claque Musique and more, as well as via his own imprint BAR Musica.
