Barcelona-based DJ and producer Hector has started a new imprint called VLack which will focus mostly on techno releases.
“Now is the time for new challenges. My mind is open and I am finding myself experimenting with sounds I was exposed to in my earlier DJ career and I am inspired by this. I’m ready. Now is the time for VLack,” says Hector
Through the years of working in Phonica Records as a young and aspiring DJ, Hector was exposed to many genres of electronic music and this was a hugely inspirational time that shaped him musically.
“I remember Craig Richards would come into the store, and play some of the most diverse vinyl we could find. It was always a challenge to dig out the experimental stuff ready for him to test out at Fabric and he would play them in such a special way. Now is the time for new challenges. My mind is open and I am finding myself experimenting with sounds I was exposed to in my earlier DJ career and I am inspired by this. I’m ready. Now is the time for Vlack”
For the first release, Hector has joined forces with MoodRAW boss Nicole Moudaber. Titled ‘Retrosaw‘, the EP will be released on January 15th on vinyl only, while a special remix package will come out later.
