Chocky House | Deep House 4 Items

Deadly groovin new STUG record! Jazzy house sounds & cool sampling from Chocky. The UK composer already remixed for the imprint in 2018, but now returning with a full four track EP Thinking Cat in 2019.

The UK"s best kept secret Chocky returns to Dessous Recordings after the success of his first outing, the well received Self Knowledge EP. Here we see the talented DJ / producer drop four tracks via the Playtime EP - yet more sublime house music for Steve Bug"s imprint. ‘Double Dip" is a chunky, stripped down vibe, reduced the vitals that will slay dancefloors - firing percussion over a shuffling groove and a cut-up vocal reminiscent of Pepe Bradock. ‘Organism" is a deep affair - spacy pads provide the counterbalance to the tough drum track, softening the edges but keeping the vibe high. ‘Soul Alive" taps into Chocky"s clear appreciation for the 90s, with a strong vocal, atmospheric strings and a loose yet crispy beat. ‘Playtime (Dub)" brings the whole EP home with yet another stormer - beginning as a driving basement jam but then introducing an unexpected piano riff that flips the script and takes things in a welcome jazzy direction.

London's Chocky joins the Dessous Recordings label and shares four tracks of sublime house music on Steve Bug's imprint. 'Self Knowledge' is a deep, techy roller clocking it at nearly 10 mins - plenty of space to expand into its full potential - the groove grows ever more hypnotic and engaging as the track unfolds. Next up is 'A Reefa' - a non too subtle reference to a certain herb that might have inspired this loose yet highly funky deep house jam. 'Casa De Estrela' changes the vibe up with a more direct and jacking track - even though it would work at prime time, Chocky's feel for space and drama make sure the track will be heard in many diverse surrounding and sets this year.

London Deep House, heavily influenced by jazz and dub. Three master- pieces of House-groove minimalism for the foggy, hazy clubs of today and tomorrow.
