Re: Henry Saiz - New Album (June 10th Release Date)
If I picture Henry Saiz I'd say a skinny nerd in front of a Mac experimenting on Ableton probably experimenting a little too much at times. This ostensible nerd, formerly involved in sound design on Spanish Television in his own right, mind you has a level and understanding of sound and the transcending nature to conceptualise music as an art form that is at a far superior from other so-called DJ's in our era. This vision of sound has derived a long awaited debut release for unmixed individually produced tracks compiling two years of sampling, editing, and producing.
The title well describes the intention behind this release being an almost lament of experiencing a ‘Dream.’ What you see is what you get, an exploration into Saiz’s methodology into the transfiguration of Electronica, best served at night in your sleep.
Progressing through this album, you expect nothing less from a nice progressive bass driven/80’s synth-originated tracks. Track 1 started creepy listening to it in the dark, however moving on in this package, every track deserved a “fucking brilliant release” title. I could just forecast how many DJ's will end up playing most of these tracks, with the additions of so many variants/layers to each track that is expected from Saiz. This would have been amazing if he released a mixed version, each track almost sounds like they can mix themselves (no pun intended). Almost as good as Sasha's efforts in Involver 3 for mixing purposes. However, I would comment that is a little more techy than your regular Saiz release, as opposed to having been used to releases from his other EP’s and of course his Balance release. Expect this to be fast-tracked to your nearest dance floor.
A solid releases to say the least, and worth a few listens.

i havent bought it yet but have it on my phone because its on google play. if you have an android device, sign up for the 30 day free trial to the All Access package and you can listen to any song in the google play catalogue like spotify. Not sure if I will keep the service after the free trial, which I would have to purchase the album at that point.
Re: Henry Saiz - New Album (June 10th Release Date)
I've been listening to it a lot in the past few days, and yes.. most of the tracks are amazing, and they will sound even better in a Fabric 64 type mix
Re: Henry Saiz - New Album (June 10th Release Date)
Played CD 1 at the weekend .. superb.
The 4 min mark is just perfect for a DJ like Cattaneo to tear the roof off a place.

This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.
Re: Henry Saiz - New Album (June 10th Release Date)
is it just me? ...just finished listening to both cd's, amazing album!! but bass is a bit too loud :S
i have to lower it down on my stereo to listen it properly.
rich sounds and great atmosphere overall !
somehow it didn't captivate me @ first, if you get the same, don't let it fool you,
it sounds better and better after every listen, i really enjoy it
despite the bass, its a pretty decent work by Henry gotta say !.

^yah I would agree with that... I still think the majority of the tracks are incredible... but the mastering does seem off. The bass is turned down in my car while listening .
