Selador presents 200 ep1

ep1 Released 1^st August

ep2 15^th August / ep3 29^th August

For the last twelve years and 199 releases, Dave Seaman and Steve Parry have showcased the best House and Techno, plus all the flavours in-between, for your delectation. For their milestone double-century release, they bring you 200. 

200 features twelve tracks from Selador’s twelve-year-history, six from Dave Seaman and six from Steve Parry, refreshed and reworked by friends old and new. Spread over three separate EPs, you can get your hands on 200 ep1 on Friday 1^st August, with 200 ep2 a fortnight after (August 15^th) and 200 ep3 a fortnight after that (August 29^th). 200 ep1 The opening ep1 is a strong statement of intent.

For the first track, Steve Parry partners up with Four Candles to bring you Mysko, which has been expertly remixed by dream team duo of Hernan Cattaneo & Mercurio. The word Mysko roughly translates from Swedish to ‘strange’ or ‘mysterious’ The title describes the track well. Mysko is tense, yet dreamy at the same time. The calm before the Mysko storm, you can feel the atmospheric pressure moving around you, the seductive beat is your car in cruise control on a solitary Scandinavian highway whilst ethereal layers of synth dance like snowflakes in its’ slipstream. 

Up next is Dave Seaman featuring Thomas Gandey with the magnificent Heavyweight Residue (Derun Remix). Full of intensity, you can feel the presence of Heavyweight Residue looming behind you like the malevolent spirit of a cryptid streetfighter. Look behind you, you see nothing. Fix your gaze back in front of you at 1:30 and everything goes off around you. Heavyweight Residue breathes down your neck. And you love it. 

Thirdly, we hand back to Steve Parry with Won’t You Believe, sublimely remixed by the brilliant Just Her. Won’t You Believe takes Lego pieces from different kits and builds a brilliant new model from them. Chassis from the breakbeat kit, big chunky melodic bass synth tyres, trance vocal headlights and more than a few bits and bobs from the progressive and deep house kit. House to techno and all flavours in between represented in one track.

Finally, we switch again to Dave Seaman with Two By Two (Audio Junkies Mix). A perfect track to show the symbiosis of Selador, Steve and Dave have been two by two, side by side (as the lyrics go) for 200 releases. A boom-thwack drum line accompanied by shakers build. 1 minute into Two By Two, when the bass kicks in, feel your body start to surge. 

Steve Parry tells us more about Selador 200: It’s quite a strange (but great) feeling reaching out 200th release. Time flies when you’re having fun they say, and yes, we’ve been having fun. Selador has always been about Dave and Me, our musical output, and the music that we love. So it seemed fitting to get sparkly new versions of some of our tracks. We asked our musical friends and artists we love, to tweak, nip & tuck and give our tracks a glazing of their own flavours. The outcome was suitably Selador, with all genres covered and all delivered to make you smile and dance.

Watch this space for some amazing remixes on ep2 from Elif, Stereo Underground, Anido, and Pornbugs. And on ep3 from Skala, Dilby, Cortona and Harald Björk.
