From Dream to Reality

Ital tours US and Europe tour with new 'Dream On' album

Having released five track EP ‘Hive Mind’ on UK label Planet Mu earlier this year, Brooklynite Ital – aka Daniel Martin-McCormick – follows it up with full length album 'Dream On' on 5th November.
 
Continuing his experimental diversions into house, techno and of course Italo, and mixing them with New York's recent history of broken beats and bass driven sound, this time around 20 weeks of touring has helped infuse them with the raw energy of the dancefloor whilst still retaining the broad, impressionistic brush strokes of his earlier work.
 
Track titles such as ‘Eat Shit (Waterfalls Mix)' and 'What a Mess' hint at Ital's background in DIY punk and noise, amorphous, swirling psychedelic elements and walls of ambient noise and atmosphere providing a counterpoint to the swathes of clean-cut, grid driven Ableton productions.
 
Catch him in the US throughout the rest of September and the beginning of October – alongside Laurel Halo, Magic Touch and M Geddes Gedras - before he crosses the Atlantic for a series of European dates including Poland's Unsound Festival.
