DJ & producer Jon Gurd has just unveiled his much anticipated full-length album, ‘Phoenix’. The new record is already available to stream and purchase across all major digital platforms via UK imprint Anjunadeep.
Following up on his 2020 ‘Lion’ LP, the newly dropped ‘Phoenix’ was born out of a need for resurgence during the pandemic. ‘‘Phoenix’ was written during the UK lockdown last year. When things at home got to a pretty low point I asked myself what is the most empowering thing I can do right now and the answer was to make a new album. I’ve always wanted to make an album called ‘Phoenix’. I like the idea of rebirth and coming back stronger after big challenges’, says Gurd.
‘A lot of the album is about getting close to the bone of feeling, a lot like ‘Lion’ was in a way, but this time trying to translate old subconscious memories into feeling. Memories of euphoria when I just started clubbing 20 years ago. The excitement of discovering and dancing to music for the first time. The feeling of connection on the dance floor with people you’ve never met before. The after-parties, the whole thing.’ he concludes.
