Influences – Juan Maclean

The Juan MacLean is ready to drop 'In A Dream', through DFA – his fourth album length excursion through disco, early house and the ephemereal spirit of JACK. This weekend MacLean is set to pass through England in support of the record, playing alongside Horse Meat Disco at The Nest in Dalston on September 6th (tickets available here kids). Before his show we thought we'd get him to break down his Influences for us, and the man came through admirably – naturally anyone who picks anything from The Warriors soundtrack is alright by us… After enjoying MacLean's section above, give his new cosmic flecked single a listen below –
Maurice Fulton is one of my favorite producers. He truly has his own sound and he is a character, two things sorely missing in the age of cookie-cutter drag-and-drop-loop Deep House. There are 100’s of video tutorials online now that will show you how to make any sort of track you want, and no shortage of places to download premade loops to make them with. This Maurice Fulton tutorial is either a brilliant piece of performance art, a rare glimpse into the mind of a mad genius, or a ‘fuck you’ to the state of electronic music production.
