Not Another DJ: Trance Wax – L.A. Weekly

Belfast DJ and producer Garry McCartney has been releasing acclaimed music as Ejeca for years, helping him become a mainstay of the British house and techno scene. But when he wanted to release some tracks with a nostalgic vibe, he decided to create a new alias. Enter Trance Wax.

I would say they are focused on different genres, McCartney says. With Ejeca the tracks I make and play are house and techno.With Trance Wax, the music is more about nostalgia and melody, a trip down memory lane.

The Northern Irish artist says that heinitially created four remixes of trance records and released them on white label vinyl for fun.

Since then it grew a small cult following from a lot of big names including Anjuna, he says. I then made two remixes for Above & Beyond for their Oceanlab alias the natural progression was to release original music with them. Its been great having a goalpost to aim at with a big label. Ive made a lot of music thanks to this.

The result of it all is the newManayaEP, which is described as a celebration of dance music through the ages. Theres more to come McCartney has been busing in lockdown.

Im just as happy in the studio as on tour, Ive just gone back to basics and worked on newmusic, he says. Made a few collaborations with some heroes that I wouldnt have been able to lockdown otherwise. Music will pay a big role in getting people through this so I see it as a responsibilityon my behalf.

Trance WaxsManaya EP is out now via Anjunabeats.
