NO CLUB

(LP)
Nestled against the Bay Of Biscay in Northern Spain, surrounded by towering green mountains lies Bilbao, an industrial port city known for its incredible cuisine and rich cultural heritage. It is here, from within his ‘El Tigre’ studio that composer / producer Zabala (AKA Jon Aguirrezabalaga) weaves his auditory tapestries, crafting spacious and enchanting compositions, opening portals to otherworldly realms of consciousness. Following a spate of mind-bending single releases - complete with breath taking visuals (which have gained support from the likes of NOWNESS Asia), Jon now prepares to release his forthcoming album ‘No Club’ via Basque label Forbidden Colours (also home to Divorce From New York).

vinyl Album or track playing
An expansive and absorbing record, ‘No Club’ sets sail for shores unknown - melding tactile and organic sounds, with sprawling soundscapes and potent electronic sensibilities. Meditating on themes such as the lack of intimacy in today’s often-cold and unforgiving modern world, and our overexposure to external stimuli, ‘No Club’ is a record of ebb and flow, and light and dark. On the release, Jon explains: ‘Music can generate a brand new space, not real, not unreal, with its own rules, laws and dimensions. That is the place I'm looking for’. 

Moments of intensity give way to peaceful moments of elevational serenity throughout - as dreamlike synth patterns dance across a celestial backdrop, joined by hypnotic rhythms and ethereal textures. With a celebrated cast of Spanish collaborators on board (including RRUCCULLA, Sara Zazoya, Verde Prato & more) this is a listening experience unlike any other. A truly accomplished and imaginative album from of the country’s most interesting talents.
