Ewan Jansen

The colourful LP from Jansen, Island Library, wraps up the end of the year at the label on a distinguished note -- courtesy of Jansen's 20 years of experience in the Australian electronic landscape. Island Library was recorded over the last 12 months as Jansen returned from a frantic European tour. He was granted a breather with the lockdown, which allowed Jansen the necessary time and space to properly produce his record. The refined character of Island Library is made clear with Jansen's experiments in structure and tone, distancing his LP from the formulaic and conventional approach to classic house music. Jansen refers toIsland Library as a ''palette cleanser,'' an apt sentiment. There's something here for everyone. He has crafted a release to be taken in from start to finish, a treat for eager ears.
