Airdrop Records presents...
Leonel Castillo (Airdrop / Sushitech - ARG)
Eric Cloutier (Bunker - NYC)
Extended Sets!!
AD 017 - El Salon de los Espejos - Release Party
Leonel Castillo is undoubtedly Argentina's most gifted producer. While his releases remain extremely rare, his daily creations keep adding and adding onto the thousands of tracks he produced over the past 20 years.
On this very special artist EP - Leonel Castillo, the great engineer, sets some intricate rhythms in motion, forging El Salon De Los Espejos into a highly feverish hotbox of a record. Get this right : no other man can develop such elaborate and thumping patterns as he does.
From his luscious grooves featured on Sushitech, to the stripped aesthetics as heard on Illian Tape or even his grand dubby techno textures from his record last year on Andrés Zacco's Greener Records - needless to say, Leonel covers a wide and complete musical range to perfection.
Recently, Leonel Castillo was also featured on Resident Advisor's esteemed podcast series. On that occasion, he prepared 90 minutes of his own unreleased productions only, mixed under a hybrid live and dj set format - a recording about which followers commented wildly about for weeks on.

ERIC CLOUTIER
If you appreciate house and techno music with depth and sophistication played with tight technical skill and genuine feeling, Eric Cloutier should be on your radar. His recent sets around town have become an attraction for dedicated heads seeking a deeper shade of techno than your average weekend warrior. Aside from a few very memorable sets at The Bunker this year, Eric traveled to Japan to play at the Labyrinth Festival, and appeared in Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis, Memphis, Vancouver, Boston, and Washington, DC. He put out several well received podcasts in 2009, and is working on a few new ones and delving into the studio for some original productions.
