Swiss DJ/producer Sam Geiser — better known as Deetron — has mixed the first DJ-Kicks of 2018. Due out on March 3, the expansive 34-track DJ mix contains an exclusive solo track as well as exclusive collaborations with Steve Spacek, Jinadu and Jamie Lidell, alongside two unreleased tracks from DJ Bone.
The sprawling 80-minute sessions features tracks by Carl Craig, Mr. Fingers feat. Ovasoul, DJ Koze, Ron Trent & Chez Damier and Black Dog Productions. Deetron will embark on a two-month club tour supporting the release beginning on February 2 at Vent in Tokyo and concluding on April 7 at CTEMF in Johannesburg.
Obligatory press release gush from the ever-eclectic Deetron: “Over the years I have worked on bringing techno and soulful vocals together and I wanted to represent that in the mix. On the technical side of things, the mix represents my work as a producer and remixer as well as my aim to recreate tracks using three decks when deejaying. A large part of the mix was recorded using three decks but I also included a section which I approached more like a production or remix.”
