Fabric Presents Maribou State

Maribou State have come a long way since they first played at fabric almost a decade ago. They have released two critically acclaimed albums and toured all over the world. But they have never forgotten their roots.

In their youth, Chris Davids and Liam Ivory would take the train down from their homes in Hertfordshire to attend DJ Hype’s legendary “True Playaz” night at fabric. These experiences laid the musical foundations for years to come.

Their latest mix for fabric is a love letter to their roots. It captures the hours spent before heading to the club: drinks at a friend’s house, the journey into London, travelling on the underground, and the anticipation in the build-up beforehand.

The mix is a vibrant, thoughtful, and unforgettable journey through soul, disco, jazz, funk, house, and electronica. It features two brand new Maribou State productions, “Mother” and “Strange Habits,” as well as a delicate and uplifting rework of Radiohead’s “Reckoner.”

The mix is peppered with field recordings of the duo re-taking the journey to and from the club. These recordings help to create a nostalgic feel and reconnect the mix to the club’s roots.

The finished work is a testament to Maribou State’s talent as producers and DJs. It is a mix that is both sonically pleasing and emotionally engaging. It is a must-listen for fans of electronic music.
