Royal Dust – migueltoromusic

For an album that was born out of music composed for a theatre piece where the actors where blind in real life, “The State of this Monster” delivers an eclectic yet thoughtful mix of jazz, electronica, glitch and post rock that one can only patiently wait until the last song ends to play it again from the beginning.
Miguel Toro’s vast sound palette has matured since the first Royal Dust “Royal Dust” album back in 2013. One can hear the sculpting of layers as if they where chapters of a storybook with each story being read by a different person.

Teaser for the short film “Across the Royal Dust” by No-Domain (Joaquin Urbina).
Inspired by a conversation between Mike Grinser (Man Made Mastering) and myself, the music of Royal Dust and the city of Berlin.
Great job by Joaquin.

When Mixmag told the world, via Twitter, that his mix had finally arrived, Seth Troxler immediately tweeted back: “and it’s masterful!” He’s not wrong: this CD was mixed by Seth live in one take at Rinse FM HQ the night before he left for BPM in Mexico. From John Beltran and Matthew Herbert to Royal Dust and the disco-driven Midnight Magic anthem ‘Drop Me A Line’, it’s a smooth, Afro-centric trip that connects the dots from the mid-90s to the modern age. It’s also one of the best mixes we’ve delivered to you in years.

Royal Dust ‘Royal’ (Ricardo Villalobos Tarway Inspiration mix)

“I love this. It comes with a few different loop grooves that I used throughout the mix, plus this fantastic mix by Ricardo that you can play at 33rpm or 45rpm.” Seth Troxler.

Thanks Seth, I knew you would love the loops!

This film is edited by my friend Einar Snorry.

Featuring interviews and music by Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Giorgio Moroder, Erykah Badu, among others.
