Mendo & Yvan Genkins - Side To Side

Clarisse Records is a label dedicated to House music and run by Mendo, who is a Swiss DJ that many will recognise from his seminal releases on labels including Cr2, Defected, Toolroom, Suara, Noir and Cadenza.

Widely regarded as a scene leading artist Mendo aka David Mendo Ortega, describes his techy sound as deep, tribal and funky. His eclectic sound and wide variety of influences are apparent within the labels back catalogue that has featured music from the likes of Technasia, Audiojack, Jay Lumen, Oxia and DJ Sneak, plus many others of a similar calibre.

Our Debut Transmission is from Mendo himself, teaming up and collaborating with Yvan Genkins, who outside of his previous collaborations with Mendo, has featured on Toolroom, Snatch! Records, Amazing Music and Adam Beyer’s label Truesoul. Fusing upbeat grooves with infectious vocal hooks, the dancefloor focused tracks can only be described as peak time club bangers!

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
