Dousk - D.I.Y.

As one of the most accoladed musicians on the international dance scene, Yiannis Douskos has been one of several Greek producers leading the way from their homeland and into the world´s clubs. With a string of well received remixes to his credit, and EPs for Bedrock and Vapour Recordings under his belt, he has finally completed his much anticipated debut artist album ´D.I.Y.´.

Featuring 14 new and unreleased tracks, the album covers a wide range of styles. From downtempo, to pumping breakbeat, taking in progressive house and trance along it´s path, each track has the usual stellar production quality you would expect from Dousk, and the overall result is a multi layered album that can be appreciated on a pair of headphones as well as pounding through a big sound system. From the superb opening track ´All About You´, to the dramatic grandeur of ´Florence´ the album is a melting pot ideas and deep soundscapes, with ´Chrysalis´ one of the album´s driving dancefloor moments sitting perfectly alongside the trip hop vibes of ´Feign´. The latter section of the album sees Dousk experiment with downtempo with ´Dongle´ and ´Falling People´ bringing the album to an end on a melancholic and poigniant note.

All this provides the foundation that ´D.I.Y.´ is an album that in time could become one of greatest of it´s era, but whatever happens, it shows the complete Dousk, a man that whilst being considered as a "great talent", will hopefully become known as a credited creator. Time will tell if he achieves this, but as this album will show, Dousk will do it by himself.
