Here's my latest reviews on recent purchases:
1) Kemeticjust- For your love Revisited (silverpanet double pack)
Wow!!!!! This tune has some big remixes on it. Most importantly Pepe
Braddock. What this guy touches turns to gold, believe dat!!! It's some
deep dubby house with some awesome congas & f/x for hpnotic trip, then
out of nowhere comes a a beautiful bluesy guitar. The vocals from the
orig. are luscious!!! Other great remixes are by Dixon
(Jazzanova-Compost), Fresh & Low, Freestyle Man, and Needs. I had the
pleasure to hang with Justin (1/2 of KemeticJust) @ last weeks Batucada.
These guys have a bright future!!!
2) Kudu- Space/ Transit (bitasweet 10")
Deep, chunky broken beat by Seiji (Paul Dolphy), Domu, and Kaidi Tatham.
it's like 70's jazz/funk fusion injected with Detroit Techno. For the
adventurous.
3) Freestyle Man feat. Wanda Felicia- Que Domingo (remixes) (Sahko) Dope
record!!!!! Nuspirit Helsinki gives this latin jazz classic a 2-step/
broken beat remix (along the lines of KV5 or Landslide), it's awesome.
Deep, jazz/funky, and beautiful. It'll work with any MAW stuff. Jori
Hulkkonen steps in for a DEEP, sexy, smooth house cut, similar to his
"let me luv U" tune.
4) Kemetic Just- The Essence/ Atlanta Nights (Nite Grooves)
This is deep, 4am, jazzy live band sounding house, like me, Saint, and
Maji loves so much!!! The Essence remix is an exquisite piece of
deepness, with some of the most smoothest vocals. Atlanta nights is an
epic soulful tune along the lines as MAW or Jepthme Guillaime's "The
Prayer". A Great late-nite jazzy affair.
5) Shaun Escoffery- Into the Blue (4 hero mix) (Oyster music)
This is one of 4 hero's best remix work. They took Shaun's Seal- like
vocals and transformed it into a deep broken beat anthem. It'll make any
deep house fan like this new & unique genre.
6) Secret Soul/ Life (Sade bootleg)
This is some smooth deepness, esp. on the "Kiss of life" redo. The
congas are nice, but are a lil' too played out. "Secret Soul" is cool
also. I think the original was called "Surrender your love"? I might be
wrong. Anyways, a keeper.
Just some of my latest picks.
Gonna be busy finishin' the album with Saint,
It's gonna be a big one. Think, live band with sick drum programming
doin' deep/afro/latin house, and nu-jazz/broken beat.
So I'll be silent till after Christmas. Then I'll re-subscribe.
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays, & Have a SAFE NEW YEAR!!!!!
