for his third release, vertv returns by presenting the first ep of the new icône serie that focus on showcasing local talents and friends from the label s circle, the songs are put together in order to create a coherent yet versatile dj friendly eps that can be as much appreciated as a whole than separately.built as a crescendo, icône 1 is a great summary of the label interests from jazz (rafiki s la fourche), urban melancolia (monomite s city life), deep funkyness (label s cofounder neue grafik & lieu saint are making their first appearance on vertv here with moutons electriques and sale paradis) to spontaneous straighter-to-the-face lo-fiesque house killers (mad rey s travail de porc). icone #1 is a great panomara of what you could expect from the people from vertv.
