I’m sitting here on a Sunday night, not excited at the prospect of going back to Uni tomorrow but some things can’t be helped. I’ve been in a huge French-touch mood for weeks now, (I have a habit of listening to music in cycles) which I should start to post up as French Fridays (which will return soon, I know I’ve said it thousands of times but it will return; I got good shizz lined up).
Anyway, DJ DLG came to the scene in 1993 where he was DJ’ing and promoting but it wasn’t till 2002 he was introduced to Dave Armstrong (you guys out there should know his wonderful track ‘Make Your Move’). Here DLG was introduced to Eyezcream, a brilliant record label that saw future releases from DLG (the ‘Epiphany’ series) and two early Lifelike releases! I shouldn’t forget to mention that DLG has his own label Huge Records, featuring many high quality releases.
DJ DLG brings the French sound to a new level, which I’m finding hard to classify as a genre on its own. I guess it could be called “disco-house”, that’s more heavier, ah whatever, it doesn’t matter… But what ever it is, it is funky/souped up and still reminds me of that old Parisian sound I adore.
A track that’s a perfect example of what I’ve been talking about that I’m putting up for you readers to hear is the A-Side of DLG’s ‘Epiphany EP Part 4′ titled “Your Eyes”. The vocal is very luscious, and the rest of the track just follows beautifully; it just works so well. You can really hear DLG’s passion for French-house here, and in the rest of his tracks that follow.

Just for any of you slowpokes out there, I posted a cleverly done re-edit of his of a Pnau track a while back so make sure you check that out here if you have missed it! Check his official website for more up-to-date news.
yay! love DJ DLG’s music!
his Embrace remix was really good too
