I Want To See The Sun Come Up Fairmont

We are proud to announce the first ep by Fairmont aka Jake Fairley on Echocord. Over the past few years Jake has become recognized as a key force in the growing Canadian electronic music scene. Since June 2000, Jake has had nearly twenty releases under various names and on various labels, mostly under the Kompakt Distribution umbrella. Being from Toronto, he has developed a style which is a little harder, a little drier, and a lot dirtier than the common sound from Montreal. Born and raised in the west end neighbourhood of Parkdale, Jake had an average inner city upbringing. He began experimenting with electronic music in 1995, toying with different genres before settling in with techno in 1998. His peers, however, were 100% rock and roll and although his close knit group of friends were supportive, he was essentially on his own musically. In 1999, Jake made an important contact in the Toronto electronic music scene, when Jeremy P. Caulfield heard him playing live at a small downtown bar. The two became friends and when it came time for Jeremy to start his Dumb-Unit label, Jake was the first featured artist. Now its time for Jake to release an ep on Echocord. All 3 tracks on this ep will fit perfectly for the dancefloor, especially for the afterhours, all with a beautifull, deep and minimal structure. comming up
