- Category: Releases Deep Tech House
Andrew Phelan & Origami’s ‘Dusted Roots’ EPs have become an eagerly anticipated series of releases since their inception on San Francisco’s Prismatic Tracks in September 2008. Representing a departure from the traditional style of the label, the Dusted Roots series draws heavily on a classic, trackier, more sample based sound. Previous volumes in the series have reached #1 on Stompy.com’s top 100, received praise from iDJ, DJ Mag, DMC Update and Urb, and hit the playlists of DJs as wide ranging as Funk D’Void, Heather, Mark Farina, Mazi, Jay-J, Colette, Robert Owens and Laurent Garnier. For Volume 5 Andrew Phelan & Origami present another varied 4 track EP that blends the lines of deep, tech and funk based house music.
From a tiny 2nd floor studio facing a gritty San Francisco alley, Andrew Phelan and Origami have made a serious dent in the international house community through releases on labels including Drop Music, Body Rhythm, Eight-Tracks and So Sound. Their sound is a schizophrenic blend of funk, tech, deep and electro, all tied to a core of live instruments and deceptively catchy vocals. Tapped often for their transformative, scene-stealing remix work, they also play well with others, laying tracks with vocalists like Brown and Audio Angel, and moonlighting in maximal-electro foursome The Fingermonsters. Releases in 2009 include tracks for Amenti and Lingo and a remix for Lost My Dog alongside lots more for Prismatic.
Founded in 2005, Prismatic Tracks is run out of San Francisco’s famed Moulton Studios complex by DJ and producer Andrew Phelan. The label is focused on a blend of deep, funk, and tech based house music, driven by the sounds of musicians and vocalists such as Origami, Audio Angel and Brown. Prismatic’s roster features some of the premier names in house music, including Bryan Jones, Chris Lum, Christian Malloni, George Cochrane, Jake Childs, Jazzy Eyewear, Luke Solomon, Q-Burns Abstract Message, Ross Couch and Santiago & Bushido.
