Dekmantel Podcast 037 - Esa

This week’s podcast shines light on Esa (Williams) also known as Mervin Granger. Although his mother land is South Africa, and he was one of Glasgow’s underground key figures, he’s currently located in London. As an integral part of the Auntie Flo live set up, he has played at Europe's leading venues and festivals including Fabric, Razzmatazz, Sub Club, Plastic People, and Snafu. Be sure to check his contributions to Huntleys + Palmers sister label Highlife and keep an eye for al upcoming releases. The mix is an interesting, storytelling affair heading off through some African ambience, playful and melodic house and plenty of other left of centre grooves. It is a mix where each new track sounds wholly different than the last, but with an underlying sense of worldly rhythm the thing that ties it all together. This, then, is a personal glimpse into he world of Esa and his crew, and one that makes for absorbing listening.
