Selections: DJ Holographic

DJ Holographic’s zodiac-inspired new album is the gift that keeps on giving. The Detroit torchbearer has been unveiling one track per month over the course of the past year, resulting in a fierce and soul-nourishing collection of tracks that resonate with the unique energy of each zodiac sign. Landing in full next Friday (21st March), the record reflects the DJ and producer’s enduring interest in astrology, which she credits with bringing transformative healing into her life. “Through healing practices like shadow work, astrology, and more, I’ve found a profound sense of arrival while writing ‘House In The Dark’,” she explained. “I’ve stepped into who I’ve always wanted to be as a creative and so much more.”

The journey began last March with the arrival of ‘Aries’, a bright, melodic mover with otherworldly undertones, ahead of the spinning synth cut ‘Taurus’ and grounding grooves of ‘Gemini’. The rest of the record is equally enlightening, veering from deep house, techno and electro-funk, into pockets of cosmic disco, R&B and mellifluous Motown. “This isn’t just about creating music,” Holographic shared. “It’s about expressing my voice and embarking on a transformative journey.” In recent years, the artist’s Detroit-indebted sound has also taken her behind the decks of dance music’s most influential clubs, from Good Room in NYC to Berlin’s Panorama Bar. This spring, she has upcoming stops at fabric, New York’s Public Records, and Circoloco’s Ibiza opening party, where fans can expect to hear tracks from ‘House In The Dark’ out in the wild.

Ahead of the album release, DJ Holographic spotlights a selection of her current favourites, from vibrant house drifters to mutant techno slammers, and much more besides. Dive in below.
