dj richard: grind

With the launch of his White Material label in New York 2012, DJ Richard began releasing a line of stunning works by Galcher Lustwerk, Young Male, Morgan Louis, and himself. Around the time of DJ Richard's collaboration with Carsten Jost for Lawrence's 2013 Films & Windows Remixed 12", the Dial Records crew fell deeply in love with his work. After his contribution to Dial's 2015 15-year anniversary compilation All (DIAL 032CD) and almost two years of production, here is DJ Richard's debut album, Grind. A tribute to what contemporary club music and enthusiastic sound experiments should be about: exaltation and addiction. This is what DJ Richard's club sets feel like -- an incredible sound seduction, another dimension. Grind might be the essence of it all.
