DJ Assam delivers his inaugural project under his own name Joe Davies. Entitled Shields In Full Sunlight and comprising eight original cuts, his debut album is full of beautiful shades, unexpected twists and twirling melodies. The past decade has seen DJ Assam releasing material for the likes of (his own imprint) Lehult, that he runs with a few friends, KANN Records, Super Tuff and Smallville Record sub-label Down by the Lake, as well as Djing regularly at hotspots across Europe and beyond. Through the project, Davies offers up textural ethereal numbers like opener "Hi Life" (featuring his brother Daniel aka Ossia, "Smile and Wave" and closing track "Nefyn." Also on offer is the more signature deep and dubby Smallville house sound with tracks like "Two Hours Earth Room," "Cygnus" (featuring Space Drum Meditation), and "AMY" (featuring Johan Kaseta), while the likes of "Echo Form" sees Davies deviate into Bruk with broken rhythms and jazzy melodies or "Movement Into The Breach," which embraces a more mystical, Balearic-tinged aesthetic. Once again Smallville delivers raw deep and understated music for the heads with Joe Davies' Shields In Full Sunlight LP. Full cover artwork by Stefan Marx.
