Jacktone Records is pleased to announce our latest release: a vinyl EP titled Channel from rising house producer, Loren Steele The EP from San Francisco-based Steele is comprised of four original tracks designed for the dancefloor, plus a sprawling psychedelic remix from Mathematics/100% Silk veteran, Roche. Not only are the tracks varied and ready for skilled DJs to drop at that perfect spot of the night, but, they’re also earworms - hooking you with their infectious grooves and melodies. The clean production and energetic structure of the originals, featuring perfectly-placed pads, stabs and filters washing over propulsive basslines and percussion locks in a warm yet hands-in-the-air vibe. The Roche remix of Swimma draws out the groove and adds some of that San Francisco psychedelic fog. The tracks were recorded live in single takes with little post production processing, giving them a kinetic feel that can’t be reproduced. Channel was produced with creative feedback from both Cherushii and Nackt, whom were lost in the Oakland fire. The EP is released in their memory. Loren Steele is a San Francisco-based producer and multi-instrumentalist. As a bassist, DJ and a solo live PA artist, he has performed at Bay Area institutions, Haceteria, OK Hole, Psychic Friends, Run the Length of your Wildness, Space Gallery, Public Works, and Underground SF. He has releases on Wolf and Lamb Music, Run the Length of your Wildness, BOB recordings
