2x12" Eclectic Mix Of Deep House, Techno Hoiuse & Techno -From New Jersey via The Netherlands: longstanding US craftsman Joey Anderson makes his debut on Deeptrax with his inspiring new album… ‘Exotic Sequence’
His fourth LP to date, ‘Exotic Sequence’ is a fully instrumental deep dive into both Joey’s machines and mindset, as he explains himself… “The title ‘Exotic Sequence’ stood out to me because throughout the LP I tended to use a sequencer for the main melody of most of the tracks. Almost every time I approach a track with techno intentions it eventually ends up being deep / housey,” states the artist who broke through 15 years ago on Qu’s Strength Music and has worked closely with the likes of Dekmantel and, more recently, Avenue 66.
Now at home on the relatively new and positively thriving label arm of Dutch record store institution Deeptrax, Joey tells us where he’s at with a body of work that poignantly reminds us that it’s not the destination that counts; it’s the journey we endure to get there.
In this sense, ‘Exotic Sequence’ is the sound of Joey letting his instruments guide, inform and inspire him. Cuts like the constantly rising and hopeful ‘Sky Children’, the deep 808 bubbles and dreamy reflections of ‘Behind The Valley’ and the emotionally rich ‘Stop’ are just a handful of examples of Joey being lost in deep flow, channeling the creative energy in his studio.
It lands exactly three years after his last album ‘Rainbow Doll’, neatly bookending the strangest and most surreal start to any decade we’ve lived through since house and techno culture took root in the 80s. A timeless document that looks forward and back and remains unhurried, thoughtful and crafted with longevity, ‘Exotic Sequence’ is arguably the most honest and frank side to Joey Anderson we’ve heard in his extensive career so far.

Last FM Information on Joey Anderson

Born and raised in Hoboken, New Jersey, house producer Joey Anderson created a buzz in the underground dance music world with his deep, spacy tracks that recall Detroit techno pioneers such as Underground Resistance as well as fellow cosmic explorers like Hieroglyphic Being. Growing up immersed in the early house music scene as a dancer, he began to teach dancing classes, and eventually began producing music, initially releasing tracks on DJ Qu's Strength Music Recordings during the late 2000s. Anderson launched his own label, Inimeg Recordings (named after his zodiac sign spelled backwards), in early 2011, debuting with a split 12" EP with DJ Qu, followed by one with Jus-Ed.After playing several underground parties in America, he made his European debut in 2012, appearing at London's Free Rotation festival. He also released "3200 B.C. House Dancer" on U.K. label UntilMyHeartStops and "Earth Calls" on American imprint Deconstruct Music. Anderson had a busy 2013, with DJ gigs around the globe, a mix CD on Japanese label Yygrec (The Era), and several 12" releases on labels including Latency, Syncrophone Recordings, and Anunnaki Cartel. The haunting, hypnotic "Above the Cherry Moon," released by Avenue 66, received the most praise, particularly from FACT, who named it one of the best tracks of the year. EPs on Sound Theories and Tanstaafl Planets arrived in 2014, as did Anderson's debut full-length, After Forever, released by Dekmantel. The album received critical acclaim as well, appearing on year-end lists from Resident Advisor and Rolling Stone. Anderson began 2015 with the 1974 EP on Dekmantel, and ended the year with Invisible Switch, a full-length on the same label. Read more on Last.fm.
