Frits Wentink's Bobby Donny label welcomes Reykjavík producer Felix Leifur for more lush house explorations across four new cuts. The producer last released on this label in 2017 and his new one finds him again exploring deep and organic grooves, rough drums and jazzy pads.
The Tarleton Appreciation Club' has real, live sounding drums making for a spaced out house cut coloured with dreamy pads and muffled vocal samples that have an aching beauty. 'Parts' is a brilliantly jazzy jam with bright chord vamps, wooden hits and clipped vocals making for a track somewhere between the styles of Moodymann and Max Graef. Robbi' is another atmospheric track with pads and intimate melodies lingering in the air above choppy drum work that makes you want to wiggle. Closing things down is 'Juledreng', another perfectly roughed up bit of house with saturated chords and tons of reverb drawing you into its cosy little world. More

The Bobby Donny label hits number four with a first EP of 2016. After efforts from label owner Frits Wentink and Eindhoven producer SAN2, this one comes from Tlim Shug. The low-profile American producer has only one EP to his name so far, but it was an impressive one that came on Echovolt Records last year and suggested he has a passion for moody and lo-fi deep house. Rari Techno is up first and operates in an underground cavern. It sets a sombre tone with its swirling pads and buried deep kicks all obscured by a grainy sheen of dust. That analogue warmth continues with Wig $plit which has a loose and raw percussive line laid over tender piano chords, bumpy drums and a gritty vocal r It's a fresh fusion that will get clubs on their toes before 'Mutuality' again sounds all knackered and broke, scuffed up and imperfect with its squelchy synths, off time hits and stuttering kicks. Last of all Overcaste Tune is another zoned out and moody deep house offering that sounds like L.I.E.S. artist Terekke at his best. This is a brilliantly insular and atmospheric EP that oozes subtle emotion and a cautious sense of optimism. More

For the second release on Frits Wentink's new Bobby Donny label, he hands over to San2, aka Geert Schilder. Hailing from Eindhoven in the south of the Netherlands, Schilder takes his production name from the building which houses his studio, on the second floor of the SAN building where the legendary radios and tape recorders were built by Philips. With this in mind, it seems to follow suit that his music is mainly produced with analog techniques, incorporating equipment like the Roland TR-606, SH-101, SBX-1 and AKAI MPC 2000XL. The EP opens with the title track, 'Impartial Perspective' with its marching beat gradually forming into a machine groove that's raw and funk-fuelled. Moving on to San2's second track, 'Distinguishing Bias' sits perfectly alongside the kind of wonky house manoeuvres that Frits is also known for. And talking of Mr. Wentink, the EP also includes his remix of 'Impartial Perspective', which twists up the original into a deep and trippy, lo-fi journey, while still maintaining the raw groove of the original. Released early September, San2's 'Impartial Perspective' is a great addition to what's already becoming a quality label. Look out for more releases on the horizon soon! More

Frits Wentink launches his new label Bobby Donny with 'Live Fast, Dwayne Young'. Bobby Donny has been set up to primarily feature Frits Wentink's own tracks, but focusing on the wonkier, more lo-fi house edge of his sound. The emphasis will be on tracks that are hardware jams on Rhodes, Juno 60 or mpc, then structured later. Frits Wentink has already garnered a huge fanbase for his quirky, innovative and characterful house music on a number of forward thinking labels like Wolfskuil, 2020Vision, Heist and Wolf with his recent debut album, 'Rarely Pure, Never Simple' on the latter, gaining much critical acclaim. His first EP on Bobby Donny opens with 'Dwayne Young', which puts the fun into funky with its deep vibe, filtered vocals and creative samplings. Slowing it down, 'Rio' is next, like a short but sweet interlude of off-kilter slow-mo experimentation. Then it's back to the grooving house beats of 'Guacamole' with its jazzy backbone, before the melodious 'Q&A' kicks in, featuring a gorgeously wobbly overtone. 'Aquarelle' is a perfect ending, with distorted elements gradually coming together to find their harmonious compromise. With 'Live Fast, Dwayne Young' Frits Wentink once again displays the hugely creative talents of this much sought after producer. More

Two track EP from the Italian early 90's cult label, Interactive Test, helmed by legendary Falsini brothers. Both sides going generously past the 8 minute marker and well into the upper 120 BPM class of affairs, "Farf-Ability" is another show case of the experimentally excursive approach to the early Italian progressive sound, this time on behalf of Francesco Farfa. Two flavours served confidently: uplifting daytime ravey on the A side, and darker trancier night time on the B side, heavy on the percussive samples. Remastered and re-issued with new full cover artwork, featuring photographic evidence of a special moment in time for Italian rave culture. More
