Second release on Seth Troxler and Martinez Brother’s hotly tipped ‘Tuskegee’ imprint is courtesy of Dutch House Master William Kouam Djoko. His three tracker of off kilter acid-tinged floor-jams are a truly something to behold. Bathe your ears in the majesty of ‘Sacred Secrets’ and witness the floor go crazy! The A Side features the heart-stopping magnificence that is ‘Sacred Secrets’, a barnstorming, no holds barred hedonistic acid trip that kicks like a mule! On the flip and enigmatic effervescent intro of ‘Heart U’ is underpinned with drum-tastic mayhem and percussive polyrhythms that are guaranteed to make your head spin. Finally ‘Rays’ slows the pace down with a sun-soaked mood jam rounding the EP off perfectly. William has previously released on Rush House, Thirtyonetwenty and Leftroom, and has a forthcoming EP on Mobilee.

William Kouam Djoko returns to Voyage Direct with Deflourished. After a year with a lot of high highs and some deep lows, William found himself on the dance floor listening to a set by Chicago Footwork specialists DJ Rashad & DJ Spinn. William experienced what religious people might call a divine moment. All the experiences, emotions and soul searching from the previous year came together in one emotional, energetic moment. William tried to recapture all of this in his studio the next day and within hours Deflourished was created. A pure form of energy shared by William for everyone to enjoy, hopefully as much as he enjoyed creating it. B-side Behind Closed Doors completes the package; a lot more subtle and refined than it's A-side brother. A synth-heavy, down-pitched and outstretched song that builds heavily on space, both physical and mentally. On his Sophomore Voyage Direct release William Kouam Djoko truly sets out on a voyage to discover his inner-self. The result, whether it's the expressive energy of Deflourished, or the more mesmerising gloominess of Behind Closed Doors, is beautiful to say the least. The package is completed by a stunning video of Deflourished made by graphic designer Sa?a Ostaja and animator Niko Lanzuisi. The video will be launched at a special party
