Sol Recordings At Juno Download

Review: The Perion EP begins with Mavann's "Perion RMK", a quietly joyous fusion of shuffling, Latin-tinged percussion, twirling organs and sharp strings. Lulu Gaultier provides a healthy dose of percussion and cascading synths on "La Teurgoule", while Sol regular Arkaitz completes the picture with the ocean-deep Latin house shuffle of "Jai". With its dubby melodies, deep chords and densely layered percussion, it's probably the standout track.

Review: A trio of treats from Sol Recordings, who've asked regular contributors Rick Wade, Lulu Gaultier and Arkaitz to get Lost in the name of deep house. It's Detroit house legend Wade who surfaces first, stumbling groggily towards the camera clutching a deep and bumping roller full of off-key chords and twinkling melodies. Gaultier appears next, unveiling the hypnotic tech-house grooves and lost-in-the-music vibes of "Amore-propre". Then, just when all hope seemed lost, Arkaitz emerges from a damp and foggy night with the EP's standout moment - the gentle but bumping, sax-laden wizardry of "Gau".
