spanish deep house

excellent deep house journey

for fans of kerri chandler, serious deep house music

london based rico casazza has been sliding out warm, harmonically rich techno for over 10 years now, shoring up on labels such as bonzai elemental, archipel, stock5, cartulis music, variance and more. on his latest release, which lands on sterling techno imprint murge recordings, he s channeling the spirit of detroit in a plush spread of warm and expressive synth shapes. -transmutation- is strong in its original configuration, but it s also propped up by some classy remixes from big hitters. kirk degiorgio steps up first with a tense, darkside techno workout for the peak of the night. aubrey then pings things up into a trippy, heavy-rolling workout drawn from the freakier end of the spectrum.

roots underground continues its travel deep down in the vaults of quality dance music, releasing uno ep, the debut of hystorical tuscan dj, producer & mc, rico herrera. known for his hip hop production for italian and american artists since the early 90s, and for his participation with the turntables collective i maniaci dei dischi. on this release he gifts us an unexpected house record, along the best tradition of music made in chicago/detroit.

boogie café enlist the expertise of goshawk & erik rico to provide the goodness for the next instalment in their boogie café black series. the home e.p. houses four versions of the title track with side a serving up a piano vibe mix, alongside a dub mix for good measure. the vibe mix layers a bassy, bumping piano line & erik s rnb flavoured vocals behind a shuffling beat before a soulful flute line takes centre stage. on a slightly different tip the dub mix drops the flute in favour of echoed out stabs for a sparser and tougher aesthetic, readymade for the dancefloor. flip it over and the percussion vibe mix adds in some choice congas and bongos, combined with sustained organ-style synths and jazzy piano chords, creating a more summertime soul style to the track. the fourth and final dub mix sees goshawk use erik s vocals in short but sweet snippets, adding extra atmosphere to the track but allowing the piano and percussion to lead the way.

after a hiatus in 2017, city fly records return with a superb ep from label co-owner & serious sample digger, the last trip to gandahar. with previous sell out releases on better listen, kolour ltd and his sublime disco infused nugget r136a1 also on city fly. gandy’s releases have gained support from the likes of giorgio moroder, larry heard and bbc radio 6music. the ep brings an abundance of dancefloor dynamite which includes a collaboration with the ever talented erik rico, who has previously worked alongside artists as diverse as ron trent, dj spinna, q-tip and hip hop monarch tupac shakur. man of the moment byron the aquarius also steps up with a beautifully deep remix of higher! in a full ‘body & soul’ style.

rico casazza is an electronic producer, dj & teacher, based in london. having produced music for over 11 years, he has established a solid musical identity with releases on labels such as soma, archipel, plastic city & wiggle. following his killer “they move fast” ep on beef last summer, we now welcome him back for his first 12” with us. the productions are unique but you can tell they are from the same magical casazza signature ... raw acidity, enslaving basslines and subtle percussion. the ep kicks off at a measured pace with “yurican”, whose self-assured acid line sits wonderfully alongside the track’s reflective atmospheres. “argue” then evolves this acidic energy, still praying to the sky but pumping its fist higher than before ... laying the patchwork for the final original on the 12”, the euphoric dance floor obliterator, “macabre”. to finish, bringing your heart rate down with caution, dirscen has provided a drugged out remix of “end 2016”.
