Review: "It's about the funky deep house vibe, bro," screams the press release accompanying Deeppa Records' new compilation, which brings together unheard tracks from label regulars and "new talents". There's much to admire across the nine tracks on show, from the shuffling, jazz-sampling dustiness of Darryl Balaki's 'Cherry Finns' and the lolloping, starry-eyed loveliness of Jehan's similarly sample-heavy 'Control', to the flute-sporting dancefloor breeze of St Paul's 'Magic Flute', the shuffling St Germain style jazz-house flex of DFRA's 'Jazz Is Revolutionary', and the thickset, dreamy deep house excellence of 'We Met For Real' by Wearing Shoes, whose fluid piano solos and colourful pads recall the halcyon days of Italian dream house.
