Ewan Pearson is one of the most respected producers and in demand remixers in the UK at the moment.
Kidderminster-born Ewan Pearson has been making records since 1996. Following two singles for Lee Fisher’s Birmingham indie Bosting, (“Motorcade” as Villa America and Dirtbox‚ “The Reason”) Ewan’s love of house and techno saw him hook up with one of his favourite labels Soma, for his first critically-acclaimed Maas EP. By then Ewan had moved to London to take a Master’s degree in philosophy and cultural studies. When this was completed it was back to music – a second EP (including the deep techno fave “Juan Is The Teacher”), followed by an album, “Latitude”, which yielded two more singles, the downbeat lushness of “Look At Me Now, Falling” (which featured two mixes from France’s i:cube) and “Another Saturday Night” – a piece of disco house with inspired remixes from Swag and Nail.
His DJ schedule has become busier and busier, including a regular slot at Berlin’s Watergate club and gigs at Ivan Smagghe’s ‘Kill the DJ’ night at the Pulp, Paris, Madrid, Ghent, Belgrade, Oslo, Copenhagen and three dates at Manumission’s Music Box in Ibiza alongside the likes of the Rapture and Har Mar Superstar.
Ewan is currently living in Berlin and working there on his second artist album for Soma recordings. The new year should see the release of Ewan’s collaboration with Hope Grant on the forthcoming Envoy single “Move On”. An emotive piece of electronic soul with a stunning vocal from Grant, “Move On” also features a 29-piece string arrangement from Craig Armstrong. – via RA
