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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
The Northern Irish artist says that heinitially created four remixes of trance records and released them on white label vinyl for fun.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
Trance WaxsManaya EP is out now via Anjunabeats.<\/p>\n
