A new tizio, Harri Pierson joins Duca with a showcase of his cutting skills. A long term, respected DJ, collector, journalist, nerd and edit specialist, his recently launched Personality Edits 7”s are causing a ripple in the scene, taking old school house and world jams and presenting them for DJ play.
Diving deep, Instant Message is on it – breaks, NYC bassline, Euro vox – party starter, tick box, world tour guarantor. Funny and funky, like the pagan druid meets music don he is.
Techno Native is so zeitgeist it hurts. Touches of Italo, where 80s wonk new wave meets 90s house, step by step, slowly turning, loops, pop and skip, a melody you’ll be mind-humming for days.
Trippy Too show how edits can be real tools. A percussive jamming ethno-stomp. This is what a secret DJ weapon is about. Bongos ahoy, belleza !!
Young Australians harks to a time when edits ruled the world supreme and Mr Pierson was part of a rocking hard edits crew who were kings of their scene. Taking it back to an RV / Idjuts juggernaut, endless intro, guitar, piano (!) all forging to anthemic vocals, this is not Soft Rocks, but it has a nod to the “Fratelli”.
