BOSNIAN artist Sinisa Tamamovic dropped his new album Echoes Of Dawn at the end of last year on Systematic records.
The eleven-track long player sees the feel-good specialist explore a range of territories, wandering blissfully between refined shades of house, laced with techno energy, and a wide spectrum of other influences can be heard throughout.
Sinisa told us: “Echoes of Dawn is a musical journey created without borders, driven purely by feeling and the desire to explore sound in any territory without aiming for a specific genre.
"It reflects a freedom in music creation, where each track was allowed to evolve naturally over time.”
The album also made it into a milestone year for Marc Romboy's label as Systematic celebrated 25 years of operation last year. A fitting release for a consistently sought after label.
Tamamovic continues: “I'm incredibly thankful to Marc Romboy for reorganising the depth and range of these tracks, compiling them into an album that tells a story I may not have released otherwise.”
We asked Sinisa for a playlist of tracks which inspired the album. Listen to the music and read what he had to say about each of those tracks below:
Rino Ceronne - Rilis 08
One of the records I used to play a lot and definitely nailed my taste for techno music in the early 2000s. It's a legendary release by Rino Ceronne on Rilis.
Silicone Soul - Chic-o-laa (H-Foundation mix)
I first heard this remix during a night in my hometown when Scottish DJ Robin Murray joined in. He dropped this absolute bomb, and after some persuasion, I managed to get the vinyl from him. It’s still
a proud part of my collection.
Sinisa Tamamovic – Broken Soul
Released over 12 years ago on Night Light Records, Broken Soul still resonates with me as a cornerstone of my signature sound. It has been essential in shaping my musical journey.
Celada – The Underground (Addictive Trip Mix)
A classic track that introduced me to a more tribal and organic sound. It's a perfect record for building a great vibe on the dancefloor and controlling the energy of the night.
Green Velvet - Flash (Danny Tenaglia's Nitrous Oxide Mix)
This timeless track features some incredible remixes. I often played Danny Tenaglia’s Oxide Mix and Timo Maas’s Dirty Dub. Both are unforgettable!
KC Flight vs Funky Junction - Voices (Fata Morgana Remix)
A hypnotic track with a tribal edge that opened my vision to darker, organic techno sounds.
Laurent Garnier - Man With The Red Face
This legendary track by Laurent Garnier blends electronic music with live instruments. It opened many minds and set a new standard in the industry, inspiring countless live collaborations.
Sinisa Tamamovic – Split Minds (Sci+Tec)
Released on Dubfire’s Sci+Tec, this track represents a clean production style that I aim for. It serves as a reference for finalising the sound of most of my tracks.
Bushwacka! – Healer
An atmospheric and melodic track with deep vibes and haunting vocals. I still cherish the vinyl, it’s perfect for afterparties.
Marco Carola – Get Down
Marco Carola’s old productions have always been influential. This track has a timeless quality that always connects me to deeper vibes.
