Maribou State: Turnmills
With a breezy, sweet electronic track, English duo Maribou State pays homage to London icon Turnmills nightclub. The Islington venue was famous in the ’90s and 2000s for several dance nights (including Trade, Xanadu, Heavenly Social and more) until it was closed down in 2008 and ultimately demolished. Maribou State (aka Chris Davids and Liam Ivory) tap into an idyllic, nostalgic sound with “Turnmills,” evoking an era of dance parties long gone. This tune—string-driven with a little chanting—is alluring and ethereal.
