Johathan Lisle Does New 'Bedrock' Mix

---

‘OS_02: Original Series Vol. 2’ hits the streets and having set an outstanding standard with the first instalment in this series, JOHN DIGWEED's label Bedrock Records look to JONATHAN LISLE to push the tempo with the second in the series that looks towards the best of tomorrows burgeoning talent.

Jonathan approaches ‘OS_02’ with a unique perspective, taking different elements from all of the tracks, and weaving them in and out of the entire mix with live keyboards played over the top. Fusing traditional 4/4 sounds and breakbeats and taking in classics from such artists as Rabbit In The Moon, Hawke, and Cosmic Baby and placing them alongside exclusive material from Steiger, PMT, Habersham, Matthew Dekay, and Young American Primitive, Jonathan has created an 80 minute piece that is an exceptional and original journey.

Mixed live, every track has been de-constructed, the loops re-created, and mixed live over the top… To put it another way you might hear a drum loop mixed over track 3 which consists of a snare from track 5 and a kick from track 7!

Despite being part of the “Original Series” though, JONATHAN LISLE’s age belies talent and a position beyond his years. His own label M Theory has garnered a reputation for classy production and given Jonathan a reliability that saw JOHN DIGWEED ask him to A&R for Bedrock’s own Breaks imprint.

“If James Zabiela is Sasha's talent spot, JONATHAN LISLE is very much JOHN DIGWEED's” (DJ magazine).
