\n‘I spent a long time touring South America at the start of 2018 ‘ a place where dance music still feels true to its roots, and where the flashy side of the industry hasn’t quite taken over yet. It’s inspiring playing to the club after club full of people who are there purely for the music, and as such ‘ I came home and locked myself in the studio throughout winter, eager to turn this experience into something tangible.’\u003cbr />\nThe result is True Music.\u003cbr />\nA ten-track release in its entirety, Part 1 drops five tracks which sum up the sound of Ronnie Spiteri. Opening, True Colours is an atmospheric slice of straight-up house, complete with keys and vocal stabs that bring together the old school vibe which runs throughout the release. Meanwhile, Eloise, takes a tougher approach from the off with uplifting house flavours successfully fused with a distinct warehouse feel.\u003cbr />\nUniversal Plum takes things darker still and is a tour de force in how to do techno properly. A growling bassline carries the track with intricate effects and percussion layered to keep the momentum throughout its almost seven-minute runtime. Next up, Once In a Lifetime delivers a blistering lesson in progressive house that is pure peak-time weaponry. And finally, closing Part 1, Throat Muscle is built around the perfect vocal to carry another dark, techno cut which will leave you eager for Part 2.\u003cbr />\n‘I wanted to release something that sums up who I am as an artist. I began my Ibiza residency with an arsenal of original productions which you won’t hear being played anywhere else; I’ve managed to whittle it down to ten of the best tracks which go off every time, and the result is what I’d consider being my strongest body of work to date’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>True Music (Part 1) is out September 7th 2018 exclusively via Beatport with Part 2 release on the 21st September 2018\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>FB: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/DjRonnieSpiteri\">facebook.com/DjRonnieSpiteri\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Twitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/djronniespiteri\">twitter.com/djronniespiteri\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Soundcloud: \u003ca href=\"https://soundcloud.com/dj-ronnie-spiteri\">soundcloud.com/ronnie-spiteri\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Beatport: \u003ca href=\"https://pro.beatport.com/artist/ronnie-spiteri/402192\">beatport.com/artist/ronnie-spiteri\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n","title":"Ronnie Spiteri - True Music (Parts 1 & 2)","trackTitle":"True Music (Parts 1 & 2)","artists":[{"__ref":"Artist:19795"}],"label":{"__ref":"Label:21696"},"tracklist":["Ronnie Spiteri - True Colours","Ronnie Spiteri - Psychopath","Ronnie Spiteri - Changes","Ronnie Spiteri - Eloise","Ronnie Spiteri - Once In A Lifetime","Ronnie Spiteri - Once In A Lifetime (Techno Mix)","Ronnie Spiteri - Rising Sun","Ronnie Spiteri - Throat Muscle","Ronnie Spiteri - Shadow In The Mirror","Ronnie Spiteri - Universal Plum"],"releaseDate":"07/09/2018","slug":"ronnie-spiteri-true-music-parts-1-2","credited":"","social":{"__typename":"Social","twitter":"https://cdn-production-media.upfrontbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/09105206/Ronnie_Spiteri_-_True_Music_Parts_1_2_cover.jpg","facebook":"https://cdn-production-media.upfrontbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/09105206/Ronnie_Spiteri_-_True_Music_Parts_1_2_cover.jpg"},"headerImage":"https://cdn-production-media.upfrontbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/09111416/Ronnie-Spiteri-Header-Image.jpg","featuredImage":"https://cdn-production-media.upfrontbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/09105206/Ronnie_Spiteri_-_True_Music_Parts_1_2_cover.jpg","meta":{"__typename":"Meta","title":"Ronnie Spiteri - True Music (Parts 1 & 2)","description":"Having found his place on the scene through years of graft and a residency that saw him hone his inimitable house and techno-leaning sound and style to perfection, Ronnie Spiteri is a name on everyone?s lips."},"soundcloudId":"","soundcloudPlaylistId":"","tags":[{"__ref":"Tag:1381"},{"__ref":"Tag:1380"}],"preview":null,"textToSpeech":null},"Label:21749":{"id":"21749","__typename":"Label","name":"Do Not Sleep"},"Tag:1806":{"id":"1806","__typename":"Tag","name":"Do Not Sleep","slug":"do-not-sleep","count":61},"Track:12930":{"id":"12930","__typename":"Track","date":"2018-02-01 20:05:40","content":"\u003cp>Ronnie Spiteri joins the Do Not Sleep rosters this March with his ‘Shakedown’ EP, accompanied by a remix from Anja Schneider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following on from a Pete Tong ‘essential new tune’ for his release on Hot Since 82’s Knee Deep In Sound and EP’s for Truesoul and ViVa, rising star Ronnie Spiteri continues to take huge strides in his career by joining powerhouse party promoter and imprint Do No Sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Title-track ‘Shakedown’ opens with robust rhythms, stuttering vocal chops and progressive-tinged arps to set the tone ahead of ‘Inside Out’ which strips things back to swinging drums whilst easing in elongated bass drones, melodic chord sequences and airy atmospheric vocal swells to create an emotive breakdown before the weighty groove returns to tail out the track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The third and final original from Ronnie is up next, entitled ‘Another Life’ and taking things a little deeper via pulsating subs, gritty dub stabs and sporadic clap fills.
