Review:
On previous outings for Gazeebo, Chopshop and others, Kiwi disco boffin DJ Raw Sugar has blurred the boundaries between the humble re-edit and sample-heavy trickery. Here he offers up a wonderfully atmospheric, slo-mo burner that's more original composition than cheeky scalpel job. "Disco Land" bumps along on a loose, languid break, utilizing swirling organs and starry synths to create a delightfully hypnotic mood piece. Much contemporary 'slo-mo' music can be infuriatingly rigid; "Disco Land" is almost the polar opposite. Label boss Gazeebo stretches out the groove and adds a head-nodding kick on his epic rework, while bonus cut "I Wanna Give You My Love" swims in the crystal clear waters between elastic disco and comfy deep house.
