DAVE RALPH
KICKS OFF ‘NATURALIZED’ TOUR
SEPTEMBER 5 IN NEW YORK CITY
Beginning September 5 in NYC, DAVE RALPH will embark on his ‘Naturalized’ tour–a 13 city trek across America with stops at some of the best electronic music festivals and clubs in the country, including Buzz @ Nation in Washington D.C. (voted America’s #1 club by URB Magazine last year; also where Ralph is a monthly resident), Cyberfest in Houston, and the kick-off at Centrofly in New York. Ralph has toured the states many times over with Paul Oakenfold and on his own. The Boston Phoenix stated “…aggressive and fierce, but also willowy and lithe. Disregard the hip cachet, the bloated salaries, and the celebrity gigs: RALPH, like Oakenfold and Digweed, proves worthy of the superstar-DJ tag for all the right reasons.”
Ralph’s tour is in support of NATURALIZED, his new mix CD for Kinetic Records due out September 11. The two-disc compilation pays homage to his recent migration from his native Liverpool, England to American shores. A long-time favorite among the UK trance set that has nurtured choice DJ’s such as Paul Oakenfold and Sasha & Digweed, RALPH produces a flowing, seamless and invigorating sonic landscape consisting of works by Slyder (“Multiple Cats”), Da Hool (“Meet Her At The Love Parade”-Pete Heller Mix), Deepsky (“Until The End Of The World”), Laurent Garnier (“The Man With The Red Face”-Jan Driver Mix), Starecase (“Lost”-Dave Ralph’s Resident Alien Mix) and more. The opening track, “Islands of Light” by RALPH, serves as a prelude/teaser for his next release–an all-original album.
NATURALIZED is the third release from DAVE RALPH for Kinetic, which boasts an eclectic roster of high profile artists from different electronic genres, including Sandra Collins, LTJ Bukem, DJ Dan and Sasha & Digweed. Previous releases include TRANCEPORT II and LOVE PARADE: BERLIN.
