DEE MONTERO Redolent Radio 196

Enjoy this week’s episode with DJ & Producer DEE MONTERO, former Mambo Ibiza resident who at the end of 2017 received Pete Tong’s Essential Tune Of The Year on BBC Radio One for the string-fuelled, epic end-of-nighter ‘Halcyon’, originally released on Solomun’s acclaimed Diynamic imprint. And he’s been busy ever since with various eps including ‘Pangaea’ on Knee Deep In Sound, ‘Shadows’ on All Day I Dream, ’Shanti’ on Days Like Nights and also the scintillating ‘In The Wild’ and ‘Headspace’ featuring Meliha on Anju- nadeep. From Asia to America and everywhere in between it’s all been about the music for Dee. Performances in Australia, India and Dubai have been in- terspersed with US tours and appearances at Burning Man on the Robot Heart and Carl Cox’s Playground stages as well as summer shows in Ibiza including Hï with Joris Voorn and Nic Fanciulli. In 2020 Dee launched his own imprint Futurescope bringing in fellow musical alchemists Patrice Baumel, Fort Romeau and Lauer for remix du- ties. He unleashed his diverse 12 track artist album in 2022 playing to those deft melodic touches, twinkling synths and positive peaks. ‘Maya’, the standout track from the LP and a homage to Future Sound Of Lon- don’s ‘Papua New Guinea’ got a special rework treatment from Rodriguez Jr. pushing the release to even bigger, higher heights. Last year he released on illustrious labels such as Nora En Pure’s Purified with ‘Aquila’ and ‘Serenata’, the nostalgic house track ‘Freedom’ on Hot Since 82’s Knee Deep In Sound and ‘Cielo’ on Brazil’s legendary Warung imprint. He continues the upward electronic pressure into 2024 with his forthcoming nostalgic ‘Cosmica’ mini-album concept crafted with analogue love.
