(Deep House) Axel Boman - Family Vacation (Studio Barnhus Sweden [BARN 018]) - 2013, MP3, 320 kbps

The record will come out through Studio Barnhus, the Stockholm-based label Boman runs with Kornél Kovács and Petter Nordkvist. "I decided to go through the vast collection of ideas and sketches I had on my computer, as a final project before I set that machine on fire and let it all go up in flames, kind of like what Lee "Scratch" Perry did with The Black Ark in Kingston in the '70s," says Boman. "A friend says the album sounds like 'weird Jamaican space disco,' so maybe it's a fitting reference."

Since debuting in 2008, Boman's irreverent take on house music has graced labels like DFA, Permanent Vacaction, Hypercolour and DJ Koze's Pampa Records, who released his breakthrough record Holy Love. Recently he teamed up with John Talabot under the name Talaboman for a track called "Sideral," which has been included on Talabot's forthcoming DJ-Kicks mix. Family Vacation will see release on double-vinyl, CD and digital formats.
