Following the release of singles ‘LMK’, ‘Holding On’ and ‘Hot Night’, LA-based DJ and producer Durante releases his debut album ‘Enter’ on Anjunadeep.
Hailing from a small Italian village outside of Florence, Durante (aka Kevin Durante) began his musical journey in 2006. Drawn to the sweet spots where house and techno genres intersect, Durante’s versatile sound has seen him release with Anjunadeep, Armada, W&O Street Records, and Amtrac’s imprint Openers. Esteemed artists including Bonobo, RÜFÜS DU SOL, and Joris Voorn have praised Durante’s work, and he has collaborated with the likes of Diplo & Aluna on ‘Forget About Me’ and Amtrac on ‘Gather’, as well as remixing Cassian, Booka Shade, TWO LANES and more.
Now, 18 years after his musical journey started, Durante finally shares his debut album ‘Enter’ on Anjunadeep. Inspired by the concept of portals and multiple dimensions, ‘Enter’ showcases his eclectic sound that has developed from Kevin’s diverse pool of musical influences, featuring Duke Ellington, classic Italo-disco, and early Cocoon records.
“I’ve spent the past three years working on this album; it marks the beginning of many great endeavours in my life. It’s a coming-of-age story, but it’s also a reflection of the world around us. I’m happy to be able to share my emotions through music because the words escape me. Hopefully, you can find solace in the sound. Open your eyes, enter the portal to the sixth dimension.” - Durante
Across 13 compelling tracks, Durante explores themes of self-discovery, acceptance, and love. The album features collaborations with Montréal-based producer and live act CRi, American vocalist Nathan Nicholson, Australian singer-songwriter Running Touch, Californian songstress and producer HANA, and London-based vocalist SOHN.
With singles including ‘LMK’ and ‘Remedy’ released in the lead up to the album release, Durante has gained support on BBC Radio 1, SiriusXM Chill and SiriusXM BPM, as well as from key tastemakers including Pete Tong, MEDUZA, Joris Voorn and John Digweed. The album has amassed over 2.5m streams to date and gained praise from DJ Mag Italy and Forbes Magazine.
Durante kicked off his album tour in January in the USA, playing in cities including New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle and at the Anjunadeep label showcase event at the esteemed London venue, the Roundhouse.
‘Enter' is out now on Anjunadeep.
