5 Track EP OF Deep House / Downbeat House From South Korean Soul Based Star. Repressed oN Ltd Yellow Vinyl

With love from Seoul! We always get giddy and excited when we receive wax from the far lands of this world. One of the main reasons is because we want fresh sounds and takes on electronic music and understand how other people interprets them. But also is that take of the English language, that like mine, tends to be slightly pedestrian. I am mainly referring to the lines on A2 'ABC': A, I love you, B I want you C I miss you. Maybe it is all sophisticated me trying to score an easy one.

Intro done with, let's talk about the music. You get couple of deep house bangers with 'If You Want It' - smokey pianos, sensual lyrics, clean cut synths and a punchy, cotton wrapped house beat. This one is my fave and I hear that it has received strong support from many DJs way more renowned than me. Thanks to this I know certainly that I am savouring a banger of the highest order.

'ABC', you know my take on the lyrics already, the rest is as good as it gets on this vinyl. Piano-laden and very sensual house beats. Production is spotless here.

'Close Eyes' has an industrial aura around it but we are still in the house genre. The vocals enhance this sombre mood but the beats remind you are dancing like a maniac in an illegal warehouse party. Excellent.

'Call Me' is the exception here, a track that could perfectly have been lifted out of a HNNY 12". Looped piano sample and Aphex Twinish beats, almost hip hop style. Pretty decent though.

If it was under my control, I would declare this 12", dancefloor record of the week. Yes, it is that good. Keep them coming!
