Audio Therapy - Across Borders : Greece

Continuing his support for the multitude of talent that exists around the world, globe trotting DJ Dave Seaman is set to launch a new compilation series that aims to focus on these individuals and their home countries. First up in the series is Greece, home of the 2004 Olympics, and also home to some of the brightest new stars including Kosmas Epsilon, Nikola Gala and Stel & Good Newz. All the details on this new venture, including comments from Dave and news about a forthcoming tour are here for your reading pleasure.

Dave Seaman's highly acclaimed Audio Therapy label is proud to announce the launch a brand new album series entitled 'Across Borders'. The unmixed compilation will be available on two formats (CD, 2 x 12" and, of course,digital downloads) and focus on the very best production talent from a single country or region. The album boasts a unique claim as it is the first time artists and producers have had a consolidated format to showcase their work. Consequently, the series will be a welcome addition to Audio Therapy's already burgeoning catalogue.

First up in the series is Greece, a country rich in production talent with the likes of Nikola Gala's Perasma project signing to Ministry of Sound and Dousk gaining releases on John Digweed's Bedrock label. The Audio Therapy imprint already has a history of supporting Greek artists with releases from Stel & Good Newz and remixes from Christian Cambas and Kosmas Epsilon. This, alongside other factors, made Greece the obvious choice for the first release of the series.

"The amount of music I am given whilst out performing constantly amazes me. Being a DJ and running a label makes me an obvious target for producers to pass on their material. Sometimes, after a weekend of gigs, I have almost an albums worth of quality releases. A lot of the guys involved have already had some big releases on the worlds key labels like Bedrock and Yoshitoshi. We just wanted to unite all of them together on one album to show just how much of a current hotbed Greece is for quality material and talented producers. There are many other areas and countries that are really producing some outstanding music. We hope to turn our attention to these as the series progresses." - Dave Seaman

Tour dates will be taking place in Greece throughout July to promote and launch the series in Greece, and the dates will be announced on www.therapymusic.co.uk and www.djdaveseaman.com.

Also on the horizon is the new offshoot label 'Therapy Music' which will allow Dave and co to sign and develop new artists as well as one off singles. The first single on the label will be released at the end of May and is titled 'Little Soul' by Stel & Good Newz, which was featured on the Renaissance Presents Therapy Sessions Volume 2 compilation.
