Hand-picked tracks from the producer’s personal collection.

UK producer Joy Orbison (aka Peter O’Grady) has curated the fourth instalment of Dekmantel’s Selectors compilation series.

The 11-track album is “a sort of tribute to Joy Orbison’s home country (the UK) and its rich musical history.”

“Soundsystem culture is a thread that runs through almost everything here. It’s had a huge effect on me, sometimes without me even knowing it,” says O’Grady.

Hightlights include glitchy funk about a guy trying to chirpse the masses (Toyin Agbetu’s ’Heartbreaker’), strung-out techno (Beatrice Dillon’s ’Curl’), hypnotic ’80s UK house (‘L.E. Bass’ Strive) and ’90s drum’n’bass with a dreamy vocal (Oblivion’s ‘Lush’).

“The UK at its best is a celebration of diverse cultures intertwining and creating beautiful results. Hopefully this collection of music can document a piece of that. Now more than ever, it seems important to acknowledge and celebrate this.”

Selectors 004 is out 13th November 2017 on Dekmantel. Pre-order a copy here, and check out the track list below.
