Jaohn Talabot is a Spanish dj, musician and producer, one of the champions of the newest breed of performers working at the intersection of indie pop, deep house and disco. After a long training in the club scene he developed his own special sound evolving from the starting punchy, melodic dance music with a clear debt to labels such as BPitch Control and Border Community.
His first full length, ƒIN, is an explosion of chunky percussion, loops of acoustic guitars, Philly strings, soaring and pitched-up voices, slow tempos, supersaturated colours, tropical accents… a collection of four-minute gems filled with melancholy, relaxed warmth, groove and melody. The perfect mix of dance and indie.
But ƒIN is also a record that at every new listen reveals new details: a phrase, a chord progression, a beat… small touches that keep on surfacing making it a neverending experience.
