GIANT22 drops ‘Chapter One’ on EPO22 Music Tales

‘Chapter One’ from GIANT22 is the second release on EPO22 Music Tales. After the success of ‘Foreword’, it is now time to turn the page and read on. Follow the main ‘Character’ on his journey, delve into the plot and experience a truly vivid description of an ‘Exciting Life’. Escape from planet reality with this tale full of energy and positive vibes!

“’Exciting Life’ is the perfect track on your headphones while rolling down a San Francisco hill on a skateboard on a hot summer night. At least that’s what’s on my mind every time I listen to this one. And now I really want to go to the beach. Come with me!”

“I wanted to use as much of my modular synths and outboard gear as possible on ‘Character’ and the result was quite satisfying for me. The whole process was very enjoyable, and I love the fact that all the money that went into my gear makes a bit more sense in the end. And not only making me broke!”

No stranger to the roots and techniques of Drum & Bass, GIANT22 is a veteran artist with deep knowledge and versatile skills. He started to play his first gigs as a DJ around 1996 and got more and more attention the years after when he showed more of his talent with multifaceted sets consisting not only of floor rattling tunes but also of well-selected musical gems showing a smart and diverse set of influences brought in from all sorts of hip hop, reggae and electronica.

He started producing his own music as well: not only had he gained a lot of knowledge by diving deep into the vast universe of synthesizing (and building an enormous eurorack), but also, he did this in a pretty short space of time because of a very high commitment and an incredible work ethos. The results are remarkable and so his tech-infused Jungle Drum & Bass which will surface in the near future on various labels including his own imprint, EPO22 Music Tales, which launched this year and promises fresh ground for breakbeat driven, tech-funking sonics, infused with cinematic and emotional elements, all with a significant dancefloor-friendly attitude.

As a DJ, Producer and label entrepreneur, GIANT22 is not shy of taking risks when it comes to creating a unique vibe forging a flawlessly fresh take on Drum & Bass.
