framework recordings continues to establish itself as a key new label, with a fourth great ep, this time with swiss artist o�hana delivering the beats.
this house music lover - real name adrien o�hana - hails from lausanne in switzerland and is a well-established dj in his home country playing regularly at clubs like folklor next to djs such as san proper. he�s also released on grand cru paris and has an accessible, heartfelt house sound perfectly exemplified here.
he opens his account here with the lovely �i tried�, a tieless bit of classically informed house music. it has rolling kicks and choppy percussion all run through with warm, streaming chords and a joyful feeling. �just 4 her (vox)� is another lovely jam, with boom bap kick clap combos, dusty hi hats and feel good pianos fleshing out the beats with real soul.
on the flip, �dream on� is another mid-tempo gem with roughhewn drums laying down a heavy groove as soulful male vocal samples and big strings burst through and bring the whole thing to life. it�s house music for cosy, happy dance floors and the final track is a dub version of �just 4 her� with no vocals and more emphasis on the breezy grooves and summery flutes. this is authentic house music that brims with charm.
