Sir Deckster

On Friday on Incognito, it's all about the bassline. Today, meet Sir Deckster, a passionate artist from Belgium whose work you'll definitely appreciate by its depth.


   I discovered Miguel Fernandez, aka Sir Deckster, a couple of weeks ago with his two songs “Shut Her Down” and “Rewind Me Up”. He is a very promising young music producer from Belgium, and has already been described as one of the most exciting soundcloud producers on sondcloud by well-known artists in the community (like Polkadot and Capeface)
  The originality of Sir Deckster’s work lies in his ability to create profound atmospheres highly charged with emotion thanks to synth notes and smooth percussion rhythms. What also makes his work unusual is his choice in vocals. He mostly works with singers which enables him to bring a true personal touch to his work, but even when he samples songs they bring true personality to his work, like in Shut Her Down.


   My favorite song of his is probably Shut Her Down, a very chill and deep track with a great emotive charge that you’ll end up getting lost into. As a matter of fact the song starts with the sound of the ebb and flow of the sea, symbol of well-balance but also immutability as well as cosmic force. Because this song is definitely cosmic.

   This week, he released a remix of Where Do You Belong by the Digits. The vocals of the original song are beautifully used: paired up with the synth, they make the song sound airy, fluid and effortless. Only the complex percussion arrangement comes to beautifully discurb the peacefulness of this track.





Sir Deckster will release an EP in September and he agreed to share it first 
on Absolute Bassline. Watch out for him !
