Review:
Over recent years, Glasgow-based producer Matt McLarrie has released EPs on a dizzying array of labels. Here he pops up on Pole Position with an expansive selection of deep house-themed grooves. There's a dash of jazz-flecked spring sunshine (the lovely "Couscous" and "Cyclops", which are arguably the EP's two standouts), some classy, string-laden positivity ("Humble Abode"), a dollop of heavily percussive, sax-bating pressure ("Trilby Stand") and a chunk of super-deep late night house ("Dolphin Translator"). There's also a garage-inspired, organ-heavy old skool remix of "Cyclops" from Viper Strike. If you're looking for a versatile deep house EP, you can't go wrong.
