Garnier Returns

Laurent Garnier is back this month with his first dance floor 12” release in 5 years. The “Back To My Roots” EP will be released on Dixons Innervisions label.

If it was not for Dixons enthusiasm for the track, the release may not have come about at all. Garnier played the demo mix of “Back To My Roots” at Berlins Panoramabar back in February and according to Garnier, “Dixon jumped on me to ask what it was, said he loved the sound and would love to release it on Innervisions”.

On Garniers return to Paris he created another track called Panoramix which will be on the flip side of “Back To My Roots”,

Dixon claims, “When Laurent played Back To My Roots at Panoramabar I immediately had the feeling I was listening to a classic- a 12 minute journey”.

Back To My Roots is out on Innervisions this month.

Looking forward to hearing this:)

Listen here....http://www.houseplanet.dj/index.php/April-2008/Laurent-Garnier-Back-To-My-Roots-EP.html Dixie wasn't wrong about this being a potential classic

I think it's one that really grows on you. The first time I heard it I thought it was only ok, but after a couple of listens I really liked it. It kind of reminds me of DJ Gregory in some ways (the bassline and the keys), and I'd say it really works on the dancefloor, and could be a big record of the summer. Welcome back, Laurent!

Yep, agree with Aidan there. It gets better with each listen. Lots of layers. Looking forward to hearing both mixes in full
