Sabo’s record label, Sol Selectas, once again sets off on its annual summer voyage, and presents the 9th edition of its critically acclaimed ‘Summer Sol’ compilation.
This year’s edition, ‘Summer Sol IX’, features 25 tracks that orientate mainly around organic house, but it also incorporates other genres including downtempo, Afro house and melodic house/techno.
Each of the tracks on this release have a joyous sound that embodies the hot weather of these warm summer months, and the compilation is released on the day of the Summer Solstice to celebrate the year’s longest day of sunlight.
Collecting tracks from around the world, Summer Sol’s concept celebrates diversity, as regardless of race, religion or gender, we are all equal under the light of the sun. This year’s compilation has music with origins from over 17 different countries, and it embraces different cultures through local instruments, different languages, and traditional melodies.
Sol Selectas is a pioneering record label that is known for mixing the cultural influences of different nations folk law with contemporary electronic music. Summer Sol IX features music from imprint regulars such as Sabo, Derun, Guy Maayan, and Desert Dwellers, but there is also music from several emerging talents who are working with the label for the first time.
Collectively, the artists who feature on this release have also contributed to other influential record labels such as A Tribe Called Kotori, 3000 Grad Records, Cosmic Awakenings, Baikal Nomads, Pipe & Pochet, Akbal Music, Mobilee and Global Underground.
The cover art by Helia Jamali takes us to a paradise beach escape where the sun warms up every cell of your being, and the ancient sand grains hold the secret sounds of the universe.
We are presenting the 10th track ‘Puerta Plata’ by Groove Shack.
‘Summer Sol IX’ will be available after the 21st of June HERE.
