Maribou Buzz

Not one but two reviews for Buzz Magazine this month. I'll post the Es review tomorrow but for now, it's Maribou State.


MARIBOU STATE
Fabric presents… (Fabric Records)
***
While the world falls apart around us, there’s a certain comfort that venerable London club Fabric is still chucking out mix albums. Rebooted in 2019 as Fabric presents, Maribou State is number 205. And it’s the classic DJ mix journey, starting all sultry and slow before getting harder and faster towards the end (much like making love to a beautiful woman). We take in dusty disco and house shufflers, going global in the mid-section with Kiki Gyan’s Ghanian funk and the German 80s electro of Supersempffts. Rinse and repeat.


Fabric Presents Maribou State came out on Friday 27 March 2020.
