Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Kevin Mcphee

to help us celebrate 5 years of wncl recordings, kevin mcphee has returned to the label – and this time, hes on the creep...

canadian producer kevin mcphee has already released an assured and consistent schedule of records since 2011, cropping up on strong independent labels such as idle hands, demolition man (with gerry read), wncl recordings and our own hypeltd (2011s blue organ ep). so its a return to hypercolour for mr. mcphee, with the boris ep, with added clout from a superb trevino remix.

canadian producer kevin mcphee made his idle hands debut back in 2011 with sleep and house 44 over a year on, he returns to the label with two floor friendly, house leaning cuts. a-side unwind takes the bumping bottom end and swung drums of early sneak and pairs it with punchy horn stabs and an infectious vocal hook. b-side, a jam, is slightly more subdued but equally as jacking with mcphees trademark loose percussion providing the foundation for lush uk house pads and a heavyweight bassline.

brand new kevin mcphee 12 inch on naked lunch, pressed on white marbled vinyl.

wncl recordings and kevin mcphee have spent many a moon discussing a shared love of mood ii swing, dubplate culture and bobby champs amongst other things. in between times, the canadian young-gun has been honing 4 tracks to present wncl012 – a finely crafted extended play in which mcphee gets his clonk on. >…in keeping with wncls hard jacking groove tendencies mcphee produces four slices of brick hard house that you will be hard pressed to even try and overlook.< (sonic router)

single-sided 10 inch vinyl release.

nice price deal !!! following on from the likes of maya jane coles and t.williams, next to release on ever cultured hypercolour off shoot hypeltd is toronto beatsmith kevin mcphee. with releases on labels like idle hands and nakedlunch in 2011, this man has established himself as one of the finest and freshest producers of the year. here turning in four more original cuts, mcphees fascination with house apparently continues apace. mcphee very much has his own fine grain analogue aesthetic… this most delightful ep only confirms that.

following his release on naked lunch, canadian producer kevin mcphee returns with his first release on bristols idle hands label. >sleep< gives subtle nods to early burial tracks whilst showcasing mcphees individual charm and a contemporary house sound. >house 44< wears influences from actress and herbert on its sleeve, offering a stripped down swagger that travels to deeper tones and soulful tendencies. support from ben ufo on rinse and giles peterson on radio 1.
