Few artists have conquered underground dance music as swiftly as Maceo Plex. Over the past decade, the Miami-born producer (real name: Eric Estornel) known for powerful, sultry deep house and techno has deftly walked the tightrope between the underground and the mainstream: prominent enough to headline a stage at Coachella yet niche enough for Europe’s highbrow club circuit. It’s the kind of impossible sovereignty most DJs dream of, but Estornel knows it won’t last, especially in today’s volatile climate. So he’s shifting gears.
Maceo has finally released his newest concept album titled “Solar” on June 16th, 2017. The album boasts 11 tracks and is a captivating journey through a dark while also simultaneously uplifting soundscape – the album is named after Maceo’s son Solar and according to Resident Advisor, he ays that it tells of his journey as a father so far – “the ups and downs in the first few years”.
The album Solar was released via Lone Romantic (LR 001), a new imprint created by Maceo Plex that will be home to more eclectic releases.
