The songwriter and
producer of ambient chillout music known as Dojo Man has released his
latest official single, “Listen.” The single has been proudly
published as an independent release on the Black Santa Records music
label. Smooth, futuristic, and palpably atmospheric, “Listen”
showcases Dojo Man as one of the most intriguing ambient chillout
artists of the year so far and promises that he has plenty more where
that came from.
Asked to comment on his
main artistic influences, London's Dojo Man (often stylized 'dōjō
man') writes, “I've always had a thing for ambient chillout,
especially after a trip to Ibiza, to the old Cafe del Mar. The whole
sunset vibe really got to me. They're great sounds for the day after
a rave! When I make a track, I always put myself back in that
position.”
Dojo Man's sound marries
these experiences – 1am at a roaring dance party, 1pm on the
following day, the soothing colors of sunup and sundown at the beach
– for a result unlike anything today's music fans have heard
before. With an emphasis on silkily blended tones, variously textured
chord progressions and a conjured nexus of well-being, “Listen”
by Dojo Man has a little something for everybody.
Asked to describe the
overall theme of “Listen,” Dojo Man writes: “Who is the voice,
is it a robot? A supernatural being? I don't know, but these are the
sounds it's making. Let it mesmerize you. Clear your thoughts.
Listen!”
Dojo Man has performed as
a DJ for more than 15 years in the UK underground at famous (now
sadly defunct) clubs such as Turnmills, SE1, and Canvas. He has
residencies at popular events including the Back of Beyond festival
and The Doghouse alongside artists such as Groove Armada, Jonathan
Ulysses and 2 Bad Mice. When not creating chilled ambient as Dojo
Man, he composes techno as Fresh by 6. Dojo Man/Fresh by 6 also has
previous official releases under the BYBL Records and Dance Concept
Recordings music labels.
“Listen” by Dojo
Man on the Black Santa Records label is available from over 600
quality digital music stores online worldwide now. Get in early,
ambient soundscape fans.
