10 Dekmantel debuts that are simply unmissable this year
From Eclair Fifi to Masters At Work
Esa
South African artist Esa has just made his debut on Dekmantel and what a record to kickstart your account with. The 'Aweh' EP covers all bases with sounds that showcase rolling house, fizzling bass and emotive, stomping percussion. We weren't to surprised to then hear that Esa has been performing with Ata Kak for the last year or so and has performed over 40 shows with the brilliantly eclectic, fun-laced band. His debut EP for the label comes hand in hand with his first appearance at the festival and we're excited to see which direction he takes it. He will play the first set at the Boiler Room stage on Sunday so if you're in need of something that's going to ease you into the day, this is it.
