MIXED BY SULTAN

Canadian based DJ / producer Sultan burst onto the house scene in 2000 forming a close relationship with Deep Dish and their famed label, Yoshitoshi Recordings. Since then, Sultan has gone on to create a huge international presence through the strength of his own tracks, remixes, and mash-ups that make up nearly a third of this compilation - a grand illustration of both Sultan’s skills and Montreal’s revelry status.

“This compilation is a depiction of the DJ and producer in me as well as a reflection of the impact that Yoshitoshi has made on the Dance scene, Montreal and myself over the years. It encompasses a colourful array of moods and styles starting with melodic and housey, moving into electro and progressive and ending with down tempo.”

– Sultan, July 2007

Tracks include Sultan’s remixes of his own Shinichi classic ‘No Why’ and G-Pal's ‘No Other Man’ and two new unreleased Sultan mash-ups of Valentino’s ‘Flying’ with Narcotic Thrust’s ‘Waiting For You’ and Joe T Vanelli's Epic ‘Prelude’. Also featuring on the mix is ‘Aiden’ by Sultan & Ned Shepard, which has had heavy support from Paul Van Dyk & Hernan Cattaneo. Put this together with Sultan’s rework of 16 Bit Lolitas ‘Passing Lights’ plus previously unreleased tracks from Spanish heavy-weights Spider, Legaz & Brusca, ‘Yoshitoshi Montreal’ is a great portrayal of Sultan’s talent and the city’s party vibe.
