mona musique returns with more delectable deep house for its second release: the debut ep from veteran dj lea lisa, featuring rich medina. consistently flying the flag for house music for over 15 years, lea lisa is one of those understated djs responsible for pushing the sound, regardless of electronic trends. a mainstay through her residencies in lyon and toulouse and integral involvement in respected record store innerdisc, lea has been cultivating her production skills for some time behind the scenes, until now. a long time friend of label boss nick v, playing each other s parties back in 2004, mona musique presents its second release walking la mona. inspired by the work of her mentor larry heard and her close friend kerri chandler, imagine that is classic house: simple, effective but above all emotive. complimented by the haunting deep tones of rich medina, his conscious spoken words echo discontentment around the current political (or global) climate. on the flip side lea reminisces of the early 90s with a revived spirit on intention. certainly one for the dancefloor, it is lea lisas subtle production work in the beats, synths and organs that make the difference here.

a 2-track ep of infectious groove, ‘drifting away’ comes from hugo lx, parisian hip hop beat maker who has recently turned his hand to house, to great effect, under the guidance of mona musique’s founder nick v. having already released on chez damier’s courtesy of balance this year, as well as production for homeboy sandman on stones throw, still to come is music on highly lauded my love is underground. on the flip side is tim 2t hailing from lille, a budding producer who has offered up one stonker of a track. perfectly epitomising the mona musique sound, ‘rue 32’ was the most requested track id on nick v’s boiler room session earlier this year and firmly cements tim as one to watch.
