the sleepy seaside town of sligo, based on ireland s atlantic coast, seems an unlikely location to base a deep house label. more remarkably, this debut 12- from sligo-based splendor & squalor comes from two residents of the town: longtime dj buddies and hip-hop/deep house fusionists brame and hamo. it s a strong first outing, with each of the three original cuts coming doused in smooth soul and hip-hop influences. that s means beats that swing, sensual strings, chunky bass and the kind of pads that seem to wrap themselves around your body. the duo s collaborative clockwork arguably the pick of the bunch - is also remixed by session victim (think ultra-deep goodness), while hamo s sample-heavy soul offers the perfect balance between smiling deep house and classic hip-ho
