This week we bring you a special mix by the producer of our last 12″ record release, the most talented Leonel Castillo. Respected by all, Leonel is a humble man with over twenty years of experience in the electronic field.

Hailing from Buenos Aires, he took on many guises over the years, putting out his incredible musical creations, ranging from deep house all the way to experimental techno. We are really proud to send you one of Leonel Castillo’s many perfect selections, yet so rare to find. Here is a two hours selection of the best current pieces fitting in the Detroit House category.

Studio-side, Leonel Castillo is currently finishing a remix for Brandt Brauer Frick due soon on !K7 Records, alongside another remix by none other than Pepe Bradock… Leonel is also finishing a string of new records to come out this year on Groovear, his own imprint.

Finally, and following on his first US tour in October 2010, Leonel is already announcing to come back to the States in May / June and also planning a European tour for the Fall 2011. Be on the lookout for dates near you!

Originating from Argentina, Savor Music is a multi-cultural project that aims at bringing out our favorites ‘flavors’ in sound. The leading forces behind the project are Cape and Jorge Savoretti, both natives of the city of Rosario.

Savor Music kicks off underlining our extremely dear Madrilenian connection, represented here by our great friend Papol of the Esperanza crew. Developing his sound release after release, Papol allowed us to pick through his best tracks in order to finalize this first 12″ vinyl of the Savor Music series.

On the A side, first up is ‘Before Tea‘, a strong driving bomb with a crossover appeal. A2, Ekkohaus delivers an amazing broken beat take of ‘Dub 2010‘. You will find the original version of the latter and a second Ekkohaus remix as bonus mixes, on the digital release only – both deeper than deep and releasing in February 2011.

Drop the needle on the flip: ‘Prom‘, an acid monster slowly crawls out, taking over any floor, setting the place off on a peak of acid fire! Handle with care… To finish things off smoothly, ‘Windface‘ will take you on a pleasant cloud-walking journey with its warm synths. A true DJ’s delight of a record… Enjoy our flavors!
