OCTAGON BLUES by GARRETT DAVID

Distant Hawaii kicks into gear for the second half of 2016 with the first Transatlantic artist joining in the shape of production and DJ talent, Garrett David.Already a prominent figure in the Windy City scene via his residency at Smart Bar and working as A&R and in-house buyer at Gramaphone Records; Garrett's talents extend even further, right back to the lab, to the deep studio from whence all music grows. His Chicago-tinged-with-Detroit blend of clean, yet warm and occasionally raw bumpin' house tracks showcase a kaleidoscope of grooves backed by heavy-seated drum programming and glacial, almost-interspatial padwork.
