For Quell, Hatful of Hallow is another term to describe a helmet. Serving his obligated term of military service, Quell saw the unjustifiable means an army would take on citizens of another country as well as its own.
Maquiladora is a concept often referred to as an operation that involves manufacturing in a country that is not the client’s and as such has an interesting duty or tariff treatment. It normally requires a factory that may import materials and equipment on a duty-free basis for assembly or manufacturing and then “re-exports” the assembled or manufactured product, sometimes back to the originating country. In the Hatfull of Hallow EP, Quell is interpreting his political and social views against the advantageous plight that is our global economic and military structures. Such as Fela, Marley, Public Enemy, and Rage used music to open your minds of our troubling times. Quell’s hypnotic percussion and driving force will not only make you move but will also hopefully enlighten and inspire you to understand, in the words of Marvin Gay, “What’s Going On?
One could be very challenged and even confused looking at Quell%u2019s output so far. Although a relatively young artist in terms of discography, the producer has already made it clear that he is very little concerned about sticking to one style of music or a certain scene of musicians. It is so rare these days to find individuals who have a bold approach towards dance music, pushing genre defying DJing and general diversity, not only in the studio but also in life.
Ranging from mid tempo deep house and afro-beat house/techno, to straight up Chicago/SF jackin%u2019 house, he has worked with labels such as Ibadan, These Days, Kolour Recordings and Blockhead Recordings to name but a few.If there%u2019s one thing for certain, it is that as far as talent and promise go, Quell has plenty of both, and it won%u2019t be long before he becomes one of dance music%u2019s household names.
Thank You%u2019s: Extra Special Thanks to Argy and Susanne Heinrich for their continuous support and for believing in me since the beginning of all of this. Also to Boddhi Satva for making this happen and for his inspirational musical vision.

Four veteran Detroit creators, individually accomplished and respected with a long history of deep and inspired electronic and acoustic music.Drivetrain leads off with Driven. Multifunctional and intelligent this one was constructed from the floor up, genuine and raw. Throbbing rhythm and harmonious pads generate the perfect ambience for the signature vocal proclamation. Next up, Dorian Gig’s, The James Herbert Theory is a courageously deep, tech flow. Gig’s solid Detroit influence clearly takes center stage. Thick, fat chords atop a flanged hi-hat move the air while the syncopated riffs fill the groove. Dwayne Jensen returns from a long departure with I See The Sun Light. Reflecting Jensen’s untold late night, underground experiences. this crafted pulsating, solid house swing inserts a hypnotic vocal chant for total authenticity. New to Soiree Records, but a known novice and powerhouse to the cause, Malik Alston’s offering is Dance Jazz. Showing off some extraordinary piano chops, backed-up by a mental sax riff, Alston’s unyielding bass line and acid blips will not disappoint the dance floor. Detroit: DeepConstucted is music undefined from a place where music does not compromise.
Transport Recordings welcomes Asymmetric Soul to the label with their new single “If I Change,” featuring the vocals of Meital De Razon. Asymmetric Soul first came together in 2001 from opposite parts of the world (Russia, USA, and Haiti) making Tel Aviv the act’s home base. Asymmetric Soul creates motivating, uplifting, and inspiring house music with an emphasis on a soulful, almost ritualistic groove. As a live act their shows blend together electronica with rock, funk, Caribbean grooves, and powerful vocals. The act often collaborate with leading Israeli vocalists and songwriters, such as the contribution on “If I Change” from the fantastic Meital De Razon.
The single starts with Asymmetric Soul’s own deep and melodic vocal affair. The group’s own member Lonya delivers a dub version of the original while ACT & K.V.L. create a lovely and spacious remix take. Liberate Recordings’ Doc Link further satisfies with a dancefloor-oriented remix and dub, bringing some of his Chicago magic to the single. Another winner from San Francisco’s Transport Recordings.
