Spencer Brown
EDM.com Presents: The House Brew, Vol. 11
“It Knows” – Sven Lochenhoer Sven Lochenhoer’s It Knows EP is a nod to the 2005 origins of Dirtybird: left-field, wonky house music. Crafted for the club, the titular track blends piano melodies, warped chords and warm basslines. “It Was Misunderstood” – Tal Fussman Innervisions’ Secret Weapons series is chock full of dancefloor-smashing house and techno curated by label heads Dixon and Âme.
