Want to win Gareth Emery’s debut album, Northern Lights?

Gareth Emery has seemingly come from nowhere ( although probably his bedroom) to become one of the youngest DJs to enter DJ Mag’s top ten as well as one of the most in-demand remixers on the scene.

His cross-genre style has been described as the welcome link between trance, techno and house in clubland and has taken him to massive music events such as Ultra Music Festival, Global Gathering, Nature One, Creamfields and Dance Valley.

Next up is his debut album, Northern Lights, which was written on tour and mastered in his studio in Manchester.

He said: “Due to spending the majority of 2010 on tour, most of the writing was done on flights and in hotel rooms, with countless songs and ideas mapped out on my laptop. Then, in the two or three days a week I had back in my studio in Manchester, I was solidly locked away, turning these bare-bones sketches into completed tracks.

“The first five tracks are slightly more reflective of the housier side of my sound; that indefinable middle ground where house, progressive, tech and trance meet. Following that, ‘Full Tilt’, serves as something of a palate cleanser, before the last four songs, which are pure, peak-time trance.”

Celebrating the launch of his Northern Lights album, Gareth Emery will be performing a one-off concert-style event – the first of its kind by a UK trance artist – at the O2 Academy Leeds on Friday 8 October.
