More than boom-boom bass and outdated lasers: Disco Volante, the collaboration between Critical Mass (Dani Honor) and Risky Business (Alex Inggs) makes high energy, yet simultaneously melodic Psy – clean, luminous tracks for the twilight hours. “I was over Hi-Tech nighttime music and wanted to go back to my roots … melodic vibes,” says Honor of the collab. “I enjoy the more minimal sounds where I can add more attention to detail … When I spoke with Alex, I felt so inspired and we get along like we had been brothers for 20 years!” With a debut EP (Time Crisis) on Nexus Media and a stack of Singles releases on both local and international labels, Disco Volante is a high-flying act and a regular on South African Psy party set lists. The two brains behind the outfit share a mutual love for beatific, banging beats; live dial twisting; and tequila. “The name Disco Volante translates to ‘Flying Disk’ or ‘Flying Saucer’ from Spanish and Italian,” says Alex of the duo’s moniker. “I thought the name was aptly suited to the Psytrance scene – a kind of contemporary disco spinning for the next generation.”
