RELEASE DATE

This is the debut full-length album by
Joash
, a London-based producer who started his musical career as a drummer. Long before, he developed a love for dance music, buying early records by
Plastikman
,
Laurent Garnier
and other techno pioneers. At the same time, having borrowed a
Serge Gainsbourg
album from a friend, Joash was blown away by the mixture of jazz and orchestral sounds that still sounded fresh. He started listening to many old maestros including
Lalo Schifrin
,
Krzysztof Komeda
and
Ennio Morricone
, as well as more recent acts such as
4Hero
,
The Cinematic Orchestra
and
Xploding Plastix
. From jazz artists to techno producers, all have played their part to influence the music that he produces now. Since his debut track "Salome" was selected for Compost Record's highly-acclaimed
Future Sound Of Jazz
compilation, ("Salome" was played by
Gilles Peterson
more than one time on his Worldwide show), Joash has been working hard to create
Don't Fear It, Fight It
. Here comes some surprisingly silver, shimmering nu-electronica. If someone may know the
Penguin Café Orchestra
from their most successful period of the early '80s, perhaps this music can be described as the repetitive 2011 modern electronic version of P.C.O. The album fuses dancefloor sounds and jazz rhythms with orchestral arrangements and the result is a deep and beautiful soundscape of strings, complex drum patterns and atmospheric electronics. Features guest contributions from
Replife
,
Andy Herbertson
and
Aaron David Frith
. Includes three orchestral version bonus tracks.
