- Belgian electrohousers Spirit Catcher step away from the remix mill to unveil a debut album on 20:20 Vision.
Belgian electrohousers Spirit Catcher unveil a debut album on 20:20. ‘Night Vision’ will be released early March.
As their bio puts it: “As we all know, exciting and romantic collisions happen in, say, Hollywood or London. Not in Belgium. I mean, does Belgium have C.H.I.P.s? Or Hart to Hart? It doesn’t. It has bugger all. No heroes, no drama, no action. Chocolates, beer…and Spirit Catcher!” Humble stuff, but producer & DJ team Jean Vanesse and Thomas Sohet have released more than their fair share of house and electro on a huge range of labels including Freerange, Moodmusic, Crosstown Rebels, SAW Recordings, 20:20 Vision, Confused and F-Communications. The duo have a special affinity for remixes: they’ve cut rejigs of artists across the house spectrum, recently posting off cuts to 2020 Soundsystem, Phonique and Satoshi Tomiie. If you've been following electrohouse closely, you might have caught Spirit Catcher cuts on compilations such as Ewan Pearson’s ‘Sci-Fi-Hi-Fi Vol.1’ and Seamus Haji’s ‘Sessions’.
Spirit Catcher’s debut artist album is reported to shift their sound away from the dancefloor to more downtempo and exotic climates, but beyond that little else is known. A bit humble and self-effacing then, like Belgium itself.
