George Fitzgerald

Silhouette EP George Fitzgerald

Following his two recent singles on Scuba's Hotflush Recordings, London based George FitzGerald is back with his much-anticipated third release and his debut for Aus Music. Titled Silhouette, the three-track EP includes two originals and a remix from American producer John Roberts. FitzGerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, R&B and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. On Silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and FitzGerald's signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. Reset is eight minutes of forward thinking UK Garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of Detroit techno. For the Silhouette remix, Roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on Dial Records, Glass Eights. A breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment. In addition to Silhouette, FitzGerald currently has remixes out for French house producer Brawther on Secretsundaze and UK bass artist Throwing Snow, as well as an upcoming EP on Hotflush and a track on the label's recent compilation, Back and 4th. This year will also bring the founding of Man Make Music, a new label FitzGerald is starting with friends.
