Konvic - Dove Days (ft TiaSun, Alf E James, Coqui, Melee, Maya Stone) - DeepDownDirty

The 90's rave scene embodied a sense of freedom, defiance, energy, and diversity. Konvic's track, 'Dove Days' celebrated that with a hard techno edge and spoken vocals by DeepDownDirty label boss and founder Maya Stone.

Fast forward seven years from the release of 'Dove Days' (and as DeepDownDirty fast approaches its tenth year of existence) and Konvic has put together a full album's worth of eclectic new music to complement the original track, bringing it bang up-to-date with hip-hop-edged techno in 'Escape Key' featuring Melee; a drum and bass duo of tracks in 'We Need Love' & 'Aura', which both feature TiaSun; and 'Gaia', with its hard neuro-influenced riff.

Amongst the techno you can also find the bouncy 'Moroccan Nights', with its North African-influenced vibe; an acid techno collaboration with Alf E James, 'Rhythm is in my Mind'; the pulsating groove of 'Dance', the third track to feature TiaSun; the vibrant chords of 'Keep Walking By'; the underground feel of 'Exit Light'; and the subversive 'Don't Be Afraid', a collaboration with Coqui.

This is music that celebrates the liberating, hedonistic 90's rave scene with a futuristic edge. Its euphoric, rebellious and wild. It embodies great dance music in its all its glorious variety across the eleven tracks. As Maya says on 'Dove Days', 'It didn't matter who you were or what you did, we were united by the music,'.

'Dove Days' the LP stands as a reminder and testament of how true that still is.

DeepDownDirty is owned by Maya Stone: an oldskool raver and mum of one as well as a care and support worker in the London Borough of Kingston-Upon-Thames for charities, not-for-profit organisations and companies supporting independent living via care in the community.

These themes of encouraging independence and creativity, as well as facilitating collaborative connections guide Maya both in the real and online worlds, throughout all her endeavours to make the world a better place.

DeepDownDirty is an altruistic record label and community through which Maya focuses on providing a stepping stone along the path of each artist who wants to ‘get their music out there’.
