To close out proceedings for 2017, we have invited DJ and producer Leo Mas to compile the perfect Dusk Dubs New Year’s Eve volume.
Originally born in Sardinia, from the age of 7 he lives in Milan, Italy…. His musical journey began as a child listening to the many records his father would buy alongside the programming of the Italian Public Radio Broadcaster RAI.
Developing a vinyl collection himself from the age of 9, Leo’s taste would cross all musical boundaries and genres… resulting today in an amazing personal collection of over 32,000 records.
Leo is often regarded as an originator of Balearic sound and a true pioneer of House music, he was both a protagonist and witness of the club scene phenomenon that was born in Ibiza during those heady days of 85, '86, '87 and '88 (The Second Summer of Love), alongside Alfredo, and '90.
As taste makers go, he's as relevant today as he was back then, and that is why we are blessed to have him choose a selection of his favorite tracks of 2017.
"This mix consists of 25 tracks, they are no faster than 102 bpm. There are no edits, no reissues and are all tracks published for the first time in 2017".
