Dixon – along with partner Âme - is the man behind the critically acclaimed Berlin-based label Innervisions. You must remember Laurent Garnier's 'Back To My Roots' EP which came out on the same label. Dixon's last foray into the world of mix CDs came via 2007’s Body Language Vol. 4 on Get Physical. Dixon is now set to release the first installment of a brand new DJ Mix Series on Innervisions, Temporary Secretary.
"Temporary Secretary" is a conscious snapshot. Neither obliged to be a strict club set that has to work for any given dance floor or act as an addendum to Body Language Vol. 4 nor designed to follow a certain concept like Grandfather Paradox (with Henrik Schwarz and Âme) did within the annals of minimal music, "Temporary Secretary" is the third gender. The fact is, none of the versions offered have been available anywhere else.
Dixon slices and cuts the elements and fragments of the songs and tracks, pasting them together somewhere else and in a way that would not be possible in a club with turntables or CDJs alone and certainly not on the fly. He distils the essence of the very nature of what a DJ argues to do with music: to leave a distinct mark on it.
"Temporary Secretary" features new and unreleased versions and edits exclusively produced by Dixon for this release from Fever Ray, Âme, Jazzanova, Junior Boys, Ben Klock, Kiki, Code 718 (Danny Tenaglia) and The Machine. Tracklisting
Dixon's "Temporary Secretary" will be released on Innervisions on October 26, 2009. Download the new and free Âme track 'Setsa' on the next page.
