Sofian Rouge announces his ‘The Mirror’ EP including Doc Brown remix

Sofian Rouge is a name that’s been sneaking up on the global music scene for some time, deftly delivering his namesake “Balearic cosmic techno-pop” and warm, analog house grooves to the unsuspecting masses. Previous releases on Global Warming, Buzzin’ Fly, SFP and more have brought the French maestro (real name: Frederic Faupin) critical acclaim and A-list accolades. Now he’s back on Dissident after a summer debut (Ancient Sun) that saw heavy-hitter support from DJs including Sasha and Aly & Fila.

“The Mirror” brings us more of the good vibes we’ve come to expect from Sofian Rouge. Deep chords and melodic bells float above funky Balaeric grooves and a percolating bassline, carrying the listener to a blissful Mediterranean escape. Perfect poolside beats.

For our premiere, Miami DJ Doc Brown turns up the energy level and turns out a properly storming tech-roller, transforming sunny arps into gritty acid-tinged lines, laced with drums and more drums. We’re excited to have Doc back on Dissident and this remix proves why he remains one of the most respected but under-appreciated producers around.
