In our Mixtape Series we ask an artist to make us a tape withhis/her favourite music, influences, etc. They can do whatever they want, a real 'carte blanche'.
Our second artist is Greg Haines. He made a mix of African (and a few afro-carribean) tracks, exclusively for Icarus. We 'll broadcast it next Sunday, 09/02/2014.
Greg Haines, known for his solo work and work with Alvaret Ensemble, is an English musician and composer who has been living in Berlin since 2008. He was born in a small town in the south of England in the 1980s, where he began from a young age to develop an interest in sound and the devices used to create it. 2013 was a big year. In May, Denovali released "Where We Were", an album which focuses on synthesizers and percussion.
