Release Info:
Rotterdam based 25 Places are back on Dirt Crew with a bang! since their "Love More" release in 2015 the boys have been hard at work and have just released an EP for Chez Damier on his "Prescription Records" sub label "Balance".

The bounce begins with "Party In The Hills" hosting a huge kick, loopy Rhodes, squelching bass, Ragga flavoured vocal and squeaky lead, it's straight up good times right from the get go. An infectious groove on this one! "Closing Title Song" heads into deep soaring territory, it's forward house beat and pulsing synth lead intertwine with loose tropical percussion and a rhapsodic horn hook.

On the flip we have Laurence Guy who does not really need an introduction anymore, the man has been all over the place since this years releases on "Cin Cin", "Outplay" and the imminent "Church" where he dropped two big EP's "Bamboo" and "Kojak". Here he takes on the soulful deep Chicago House of 25 Places and turns it into a 90's breakbeat acid galore of ecstasy tingled UK House.

25 Places wrap up the rave session with "Backyard Stories", a raw and bouncing, bass face inducing jam. Uplifting and dirty in one stroke, its thumping kick and feverous melodies make it impossible not to move.

Release Info:

Rotterdam duo 25 Places are a talented pair we've been following for some time. No strangers to the label, Tayfun and Stefan appeared on Dirt Crew with their roller of a track "Good Time" on "Deep Love 3" in 2013, while the latter of the two dropped his solo "Warehouse EP" under his Last Mood moniker with us back in 2012. On top of everything, the guys launched their own label Late Night Running last year. We are proud to present their latest creation for Dirt Crew, the "Love More" EP.

The "Love More" EP is old school and raw house music, it's a complete collection of classic sounding cuts that explore moods for all hours. The title track "Love More" locks us in a groove, mesmerizing melody lines build drama and tension, luring us into the fold. "Strange Day" reaches to deeper territory with subby bass, soft spoken pads and distant vocals. On the flip "These Moments" lifts the tone again with light hearted licks and tight percussion, then the journey takes another turn, with the deep, dubby, alluring soundscapes of "Ecstatic States",strictly unadulterated emotion. Last up, on the digi you can get your hands on "Sometimes", an evolving excursion into house, with enough building energy care of it's swelling synths and throbbing kicks to whip any floor into a sweat.

This deftly produced and musically comprehensive outing from our friends 25 Places has found it's way into our record bags, and we're happy to share it with you.
