Israeli techno producer and DJ Shlomi Aber will release his second album “Chicago Days, Detroit Nights” on Josh Wink’s Ovum imprint this September 20th
Shlomi was named as Beatports artist of the year in 2008 and describes his music as, “No matter if it’s hard or soft, it just needs to touch your mind, body and soul at the same time. That’s what I call a ‘Good Record’”. The new album reflects the Tel Aviv-native passion for all things house and techno, but also refers to minimal, jazz, and even contains bits of acid.
The result is a very diverse and warm album that mixes Shlomi’s signature melodic minimal house grooves to a sound that’s based upon the tunes from way back in the day, when beats from Detroit, Chicago and New York ruled the airwaves. To get to such a crossover sound isn’t easy, but we must say that Shlomi has squeezed out a very balanced album that definitely lives up to its name.
