Description
Specter’s ambience-driven, organic touch exudes an infectious groove that is deeply soulful, sensual, earthy, warm and nocturnal with a good measure of sublime disco, acid house, jazzy inflections and pure funk.Inspired by UK techno in the 90s, he was deeply connected with Sound Signature records and artists and so began a collaboration with the team and boss Theo Parrish, releasing 'The Gooch' EP and Rolling Stones-acclaimed 'Build To Last' album in 2018, coined a record you need to know. Alongside that strong connection, he founded the Chi Deep House label Tetrode Music with releases from Damon Lamar as well as his own. Specter's sound brings the real Detroit balance between soul and heavy industrial nuances, stemming from soul, disco to deep house and techno.
José Rico has earned an international reputation as a producer (and DJ) with his refined and elegant combination of downtempo rhythms with dub, incorporating influences from house, American techno and 1990s European abstract electronica. He currently runs the Downbeat and Freebeat labels. In love with analogue sound, his live performances of synthesised music along with other electronic instruments are technically impeccable. José Rico lives by and for music, believing that music isn’t meant to be at a consistent volume and flat frequency. It’s meant to be dynamic, to move, to fall and rise and to take you with it, physically and emotionally.
