Full Flavor Music is honored to welcome Wyndell Long onto the label with the Shikago Love 2 track EP. A devoted music fiend since the age of 7, Wyndell Long grew up on a steady diet of black radio during the P-Funk era in Chicago. In college Long befriended Mike Dearborn, then releasing records on DJAX, who passed the early Wyndell Long productions to Pete Hutchison over at Peacefrog Records in London. Long was immediately signed to Peacefrog which began a series of techno/tech-house singles throughout the 90's that garnered much praise in Europe and the US. Labels such as Primate, Soma, R&S, and DJAX also caught on to Wyndell Long, leading to his tracks appearing regularly in the sets of some of the biggest global DJ names. Long's debut with Full Flavor Music is intentionally 'Old School' sounding, sure to lead folks straight to the dance floor. "Always Keep It Wet" is a simple 'jack' track … it's pure Chicago, no studio tricks or high sampling rates. "Shikago Love" is the result of experiments with timing. The bassline and hi-hats are off the normal grid, but come together when heard in unison. There are a lot of subtle elements that move the track as something different happens about every eight bars. Analog synthesizers glide against a smoothed out high end in a way that is refreshingly pleasant to the ears, making the cut stand out amongst today's extra hot and crispy releases.
