ALTERED SOUL EXPERIMENT by WAXIST

Rich of a back catalogue that makes the rounds from Detroit to Amsterdam via New York and Verona, French-born Berlin-based imprint Altered Soul Experiment keep beefing up their list of countries visited, making headway in their relentless and assiduous mapping of disco and soul music's worldwide landscape as they expand to France with a fruity tenth iteration courtesy of Lyon-based DJ and selector Julien Minarro aka Waxist.Blending long-time treasured gems, hot-off-the-press favourites and a handful unheard ear candies from various eras, the SOL Discos honcho stitches a satiny and vibey hour-and-a-half long audio voyage into outernational R&B waters; spanning from Jamaican funk through Brasilian boogie onto modern soul and gospel. In Minarro's own words a mix that defies the classic dancy club format, it's a seamless and vibrant mosaic of deftly collaged tempos and moods that unfurls, showing an artist in full possession of his art.
