Renowned producer, remixer, DJ and record label owner Carl Craig is one of the few artists who can truly claim to have shaped the sound of modern electronic music. Making music since the tender age of 17, Craig has created everything from ambient soundscapes to jazz during the past 20 years, but it's his work in dance music that is at his core.

‘Sessions’ is a long overdue double mix album that brings together a personal selection of Carl's incredible back catalogue, from his early work under the aliases Paperclip People and 69 to worldwide hits like ‘Throw’ (recently covered live by LCD Soundsystem) and ground-breaking tracks like ‘Bug in the Bassbin’.

Alongside the classics, the tracklist also showcase why Craig is still such a powerful force in music today with a diverse range of remixes for the likes of XPress 2, Theo Parrish and many others. For his rework for Junior Boys` ‘Like A Child’ he was just nominated for a Grammy. The selection also includes previously unreleased tracks, alternative versions of his own productions, as well as some exclusive unreleased remixes.

Even the most devoted fans will find surprises on this release, while new ones will be taken in with Craig’s mastery of beats, rhythms and soulful provocations. His new music is moored in his Detroit roots and echoes of his youthful exploration, forming a continuous cycle of energy with his past work. Sessions is a manifestation of that idea, and that is heard as new tracks seamlessly mix with old, generations of rhythms in constant conversation.

‘Sessions’ reminds us of how exciting and unique Carl Craig’s productions and remixes are and why he remains at the top of his game – a retrospective of one of the world’s most influential and groundbreaking figures in electronic music.
