The 20th anniversary year of Dial Records couldn't have been more exciting for the label! They announce the second album release of 2020: XDB's Inspiron. As a longtime companion and true inspiration throughout the label's twenty-year history, Kosta Athanassiadis, aka XDB, releases his long-overdue full-length debut albumInspiron. For almost three decades now Kosta Athanassiadis aka XDB has been involved in the constantly changing world of dance music. His curiosity and dedication to electronic music spiral deep into the depth of house music and techno and wherever he appears he generously shares his unique knowledge in this field with equally dedicated crowds. Whether you follow his bloggish Tracks I do really LOVE, a collection of club essentials and a library of taste, or you witness one of his remarkable DJ sets from Panorama Bar to Freerotation Festival -- XDB will elevate you to one of those unforgettably magical music moments. In 1993, Kosta Athanassiadis started his DJ career in the medieval hometown of Goettingen. To find what he was really looking for, namely, the newest and most exciting new records he frequently had to leave this picturesque city, that is most popular for inventing the traditional Baumkuchen pastry, but has not been on the maps of music connoisseurs necessarily. Frequent trips to visit records stores and clubs around Germany built a network of likely minded people. By the turn of the century, XDB hosted a series of nights at Goettingen's Eletroosho, where he invited Dial's own Lawrence and Carsten Jost in 2002, the beginning of a still ongoing friendship. He had established himself as a sought after and internationally active DJ and started his fist endeavors into music production as well. Later on, XDB founded his own Label Metrolux and released on iconic labels like Sistrum and Wave to be followed by countless remixes for legends like Aaron Carl, Norm Talley, and Patrice Scott. There are rarely DJs and producers who keep searching for this hidden formula in such a microscopically detailed way to pass a lifetime in house music and techno on to the world. XDB's Inspiron embraces this unique approach, filters and develops inspirations in an entirely delicate way, and magically emphasizes the desires of the most dedicated listeners and dancers.
