warm and jazzy / disco infected

funk-filled and familiar style of house by art of tones, 2nd part of 2

ludovic llorca is back under the art of tones guise with his fourth single, where the one is. the title track with its bustling bassline, shuffling beats and clever fills accompanied with jazzy chords is a masterclass in the art of tones house sound. next up is double wheelin an instant pleaser for anyone enjoying a soulful and effortlessly groovy fusion of bluesy vocals mixed with classic us deep house, in other words impossible to dislike. last but not least ludovic give his spin, a reprise de fonk , on the title track to finish the ep in fine style.

2 years ago, we celebrated our 10 years with 5 anniversary eps entitled 10 by ten, where we asked 10 of our favorite artists to write an exclusive track for the occasion. two of the stand out tracks were martin iveson - aka atjazz - leave me here as well as art of tones, koniokola, which we thought deserved a second life. freerange and delusions of grandeur boss, jimpster, blesses us with his deep yet driving rendition of leave me here, while fred everything chooses to update koniokola with a more dance floor approach and a strip down dub. we also included the original of leave me here which was never available on vinyl.

you can always trust ludovic llorca. once a year he locks himself in his studio and works the magic which results in a local talk release. his previous releases on local talk, the same thing (classic proto housemeets-baggy us garage vibe) the rainbow song (it sounds like an underground summer anthem in waiting) are lt classics and now, ludo returns with a third release, i just can t ep. while some producers struggle with new ideas, trying to re-invent the genre, ludo sticks to what he knows best. strings and chords combined with a thick and squelchy bass is the foundation of the title track while on the flip, dirty stories, is as hypnotic as it is jackin, in fact, both tracks are so irresistible you d start wondering if ludo stole them from a snake charmer.

nice house phunky disco tunes!

theres no stopping ludovic llorca! after having several successful releases out on labels like we play house, shadeleaf and house of disco, art of tones returns to our beloved lt family with a second 12inch the rainbow song is the follow up to the same thing ep released back in 2013.

part 2 of the house of disco hod stash series this time featuring sort after tracks from art of tones & harry wolfman. pressed on blue vinyl and packed into a manila bag with hand stamped logo.

soulful deephouse from hallex m, dj fudge & omar plus remixes by art of tones and glenn underground.

thatmanmonkz is certainly enjoying a fine run of form ! heavy duty releases for delusions of grandeur & kolour ltd, alongside a steadily building and essential catalogue on his own shadleaf music label for their fifth outing the label has opted for a split single, with french house royalty ludovic llorca aka art of tones handling a side duties ‘so worried’ marries a spoken word vocal with an irrsesistible clipped organ led and bumpin’ house workout that sounds a lot like fellow frenchman st germain did way back when. monkz handles the flip with the kind of rough and ready sample-house jam the label has championed ‘got to get to’ strings together a handful of live instrumentation & melodies in classic collage style, while the dub strips down and houses up the ingredients for a clonked out finale.

wph 019 brings us art of tones with lauer remixes. art of tones is of course the much-praised aka of llorca, has long since moved on from his f-communications days and is without a doubt one of the finest and most accomplished house music producers of our time. but we digress, because isnt this all about the music?

in 2011 when mad mats and tooli went to sonar festival in barcelona they met ludovic llorca aka art of tones outside a club. little did they know back then that two years later on they would release a 12 inch together. the same thing ep opens with the title track and kicks pretty damn sweet with its strong vocal, the guitar, bass and rhodes jamming on top of a tight groove, there is also a dub version included on the b-side. last but not least, the great sgatmi is a jazzy and bumpy house take with lots of samples perfectly balanced. all in all, classic art of tones material and the work of a producer firing on all cylinders.

ludovic llorca aka art of tones is a composer who spent his youth in the north of france, learning music-making with computers (commodore 64 and amiga). after releasing a couple of techno/house 12 inches on small labels, he signed an artist contract (using his family name as a moniker) with french label f-communications on 1997, releasing three eps, followed by a lp (newcomer) on 2001. the albums huge success (more than 170.000 copies sold) leads him to stages around the world, touring for more than 3 years with musicians and singers, performing live in famous festivals (montreux, nice, vienne, den haag, les vieilles charrues) and in prestigious venues.

2005 20:20 vision release, made by art of tones.

ludovic llorca returns with another superb art of tones release with fellow countryman jaw (dop) supplying some stunning vocals. on remix duty is the enormously talented motor city drum ensemble, back on 2020 after his lonely one single. his remix is a huge deep, dark and brooding detroit house take on the original and has already been licensed to nrk for a steve bug compilation. this is trademark 2020vision deep electronic soul music!

great remixes from the french house don llorca. on a-side, llorca takes one of the best mid-tempo song from alice russel s latest album pot of gold , and turns it to an uplifting funk monster. with an infectious, fat bassline and classy rhodes, there s no doubt that got the hunger will stir huge damages on dancefloors. b-side displays another ludovic llorca s side, under his art of tones moniker, using 1987 s sterling void it s gonna be all right acapella, and relifting this old-school chicago anthem into a 2009 modern and fresh deep-house sounding gem.

>beaten< is the first track to be released from random factor’s new album and comes with excellent art of tones remixes.carl a finlow again shows his history and pedigree as well as his refusal to jump on bandwagons and trends by producing timeless electronic music inspired more by kraftwerk, yello, stockhausen, tomita, prince, sakamoto, brian eno and the white noise than by what’s playing this summer at dc10. ralph lawson used >beaten< as the last track on his recent 2020vision compilation. this jerky sporadic groove gives a nod to the forefathers while holding down a beat anyone would be proud of. the single comes complete with remixes from art of tones, fresh after last year’s huge >praise<. this mystery outfit has now signed to 2020vision and this is the first of many bombs from them. art of tones take the track directly to the dancefloor and produce two versions that would slay berlin’s panorama bar at 9 on a sunday morning.
