Infected Soul At Juno Download

Review: It's rare to see a debutant deep house producer really hit the spot, but that's exactly what Infected Soul - AKA Mpilwenhle Cele - has done here. Taking on the challenge of delivering the second volume of the African Calling series, he's laid down two immaculate deep house groovers that get just the right balance between tortured melancholy, hypnotic rhythms and subtle dancefloor chops. "Ritual Instinct" kicks things off with delicately programmed percussion, hypnotic chords and excellent, Ame-ish electronic builds. "Monday Rain", meanwhile, sounds like it's genuinely been touched with sadness - all heart-aching melodies, shuffling Afro-house percussion and thunderstorm sound FX.
