Legendary San Francisco deep house label Amenti Music presents its first mix compilation series: "Destination". Amenti Music has been at the forefront of the San Francisco deep house music movement for the past nine years, and has featured a long list of house luminaries including Mood II Swing, Charles Webster, Fred Everything, JT Donaldson, LawnChair Generals, Giom, and many others. The first compilation in the series, "Destination: San Francisco" is mixed by none other than label head honcho Olivier Desmet, one of the hottest names in todays dance music scene.
A San Francisco transplant from Belgium, Oliver Desmet is a 20 year veteran behind the decks, having played to packed venues from Sydney to Tokyo and from London to Miami. Hes also a world-renowned producer and remixer, with over 50 releases on labels such as Strictly Rhythm, King Street, Om Records, and of course Amenti Music. His DJ mix featured here is a true reflection of the Amenti sound: a true excursion that blends peak-time grooves seamlessly with deep and melodic funk. "Destination: San Francisco" is a worthy follow up to Oliviers massively successful DJ mix CD release "San Francisco Sessions Volume 6", released in 2008 on Om Records. The release also features a compilation of 14 unmixed house tracks that range from lovingly remastered hard-to-find classics to brand new dance floor jams.
Olivier will embark on a world-wide tour in support of the release, with extensive North American dates planned for winter and spring 2011, and with European and Asian visits in the summer of 2011. Visit www.aptentertainment.com for booking information.
