A striking debut for Julian Collazos, ‘Above’ is a dark and winding deep tech thriller. The track cruises with a driving momentum as Collazos rolls out reverbbed synths and hyperactive percussive lines throughout its textured five minutes. ‘Above’ embodies the edgy spunk that can be found on the intimate underground dancefloors that Dirtybird will take over as part of their 20th Anniversary Tour this year.

Transplanted from Yumbo, Colombia to Malaga, Spain, Julian Collazos is amongst a new wave of Latin house producers. The son of a salsa percussionist, Collazos combines his Latin roots with minimal tech elements for rhythm-centric creations. His originals have landed on labels like Moon Harbour, Mindshake Records, Too Many Rules, and Hottrax, with ‘Above’ serving as his first release on Dirtybird.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Above’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
