Three years
ago we released the first Human Blue album, finally it is time for the
follow up.
Even though
he has not had any releases on Spiral Trax, Dag Wallin surely kept himself
busy on other labels. He is also studying to become a teacher at the University
of Gothenburg and has worked part time as a music teacher as well as in
a music store.
"Electric
Roundabout" is a move from the darker sound of recent productions
and represents a move towards a deeper, progressive sound. Yet he´s
still managed to keep his feeling for delicately structured soundscapes
and harmonies backed up with a chunky groove. The expectations on the
long awaited new album from this classically schooled musician has been
extremely high but not over exaggerated.
When the
first single, "Carpe Diem/Intercity", from this album was released,
it got enormous reviews in music magazines and became the single of the
month on websites all over the world.
For example
the Canadian magazine Klublife said, "Carpe Diem is so good that
people will probably have religious experiences during the tracks finale",
and German Mushroom magazine simply called it, "Perfect music!"
It also got picked up by internationally acclaimed DJ´s such as
Cass (from Cass & Slide) and John 00 Flemming (regular at Gatecrasher
and Godskitchen), who also included Carpe Diem and Memorexis for his latest
mix CD on Euphoria. Stating, "Both Human Blue tracks stood out from
the rest for me. They bring me hope that the intelligent World of Trance
is truly alive and kicking!".
