Marco Bailey Unleashes The Dragon Man

Marco Bailey will release his next album Dragon Man this February on John Digweed's Bedrock label. Wait, did we say Bedrock?






Why yes. The times where Bedrock was known as purely a progressive label have long since gone. Over the course of a few years, Bedrock has slowly but surely been exploring the fines lines between house, progressive, and even techno, which is why Marco's new album fits in nicely. “Marco is one of those rare breed of producers whose sound crosses over from techno to house and everything in between," says John Digweed. "The reactions to his tracks from the dancefloor speak for themselves and his energetic techno infused sound always provides the best peak time club tracks. I jumped at the chance to release an album from Marco on Bedrock because I wanted to showcase not only these exclusive club tracks, but also his more experimental sounds that features on Dragon Man.”

The LP follows up the hugely popular Jungle Laps EP (released late 2009 on Bedrock) and the Watergate EP of earlier this year, and is said to become a collection of experimental down-tempo electronica, alongside his firebrand pumped up tech-house and percussive techno bombs. Or as Marco himself says: “I have a burning, all consuming drive that can only be calmed down by getting into the music. It’s an urge that luckily gets a positive outcome in the studio when I’m working on a track just as long as it takes to get it to sound as it does in my head, or when I’m puzzling on my DJ set until it releases the exact energy that makes the crowd lose it. I can best describe this burning, consuming urge as a positive disorder. Plainly positive because it gives a meaning to my life.”

Marco Bailey - Dragon Man will be released on February 7th, 2011
