2012 is a good year for John Talabot. The much heralded producer from Barcelona has made his debut album after stepping up the scene with remarked releases on Permanent Vacation, Young Turks and Hivern Disc and after remixing artists like The XX, Shit Robot, Joakim and Teengirl Fantasy. Those were all good signs, but John Talabot's album fIN really is more than just evidence of his talent. It is a masterpiece! John Talabot's sounds are colorful, elegant, sophisticated and sensual. It is balearic music that blends influences from afrobeat, chicago house and cosmic disco but also northern soul or the energy of flamenco. John Talabot has fans in the House and Disco community and also amongst leftfield pop and indie rock followers. Now he's here for those who seek recovery after a hot summerday and (or) those who want to experience a truly mindblowing night of unusual clubbing. Believe. If you are with him at 10 Days Off, you'll be anywhere but in Ghent.
