shintaro.d is new on the scene, but this promising japanese producer follows up on his debut on his own label init with this assured 12inch for jus groove it, taking the stripped down deep house template and injecting it with an off-kilter approach to sound design that subtly makes for one of the most effective dj tools heard in recent memory. that track in question is kohisikarubeki, and its remix by rhythm & soul takes those intricately carved shards of sound design and smooths them into a more conventional house music shape. the b-side finds shintaro.d turning out more of that subversive, future-minded deep house business, with waganamidakana being a clear highlight.

nice price deal !!! in times where objectivity of genre barriers is ceasing to exist, cueva records aims at the curatorship and exposure of their open-minded personal taste. a side of this first chapter presents two forward-thinking house tracks filled with latin american percussions. b side sets home for a long, smooth, textured remix. nothing else to say, just feel the groove...
