Having previously released critically acclaimed LPs – “Omakase” (2013) and “Director’s Cut (2010) – Christian Smith is no stranger to creating quality, dancefloor orientated albums, that explore and showcase his diverse innovative style.
Alongside the solo tracks, this new album also features collaborations with Wehbba (Christian’s great friend and regular collaborator), the New York based house music legend Cevin Fisher, long-time studio collaborator John Selway (of Smith & Selway fame), and Christian’s childhood friend and hip-hop artist Arcturus Ra.
The “Stranger Than Paradise” album project will be unveiled first as four singles released at weekly intervals through the month of October, with the full album release following in the first week of November on 12” vinyl and digital formats. An album remix pack will be released in December.
