DJ-Kicks

Description

Special Request continues its flawless run with a typically fervent entry into the DJ-Kicks mix series. His adventurous 25-track blend includes favorites, new classics, and of course a selection of his own overlooked gems.Leeds-based Paul Woolford dares to go where few others do. He can deliver face-melting underground bangers, peak-time piano anthems, ambient cinematics, or crossover hits. What unites his work on labels like Houndstooth and R&S, however, is precision engineering, but never at the expense of real, raw emotion and visceral impact. He is an artist who pours much of his heart into everything he does and has had such a prolific run in recent years that it has been impossible to keep up with all his many projects. As always with Special Request, this is an emotional and spirited walk through the musical mind of one of the day's most accomplished artists.
