Review: Second time around for Apes Go Bananas' "Kerri On", a heartfelt tribute to U.S deep house don Kerri Chandler that first appeared on wax back in 2015. This time round, the Steve Bug and Cle produced original mix - a suitably bumpin' U.S house style roller rich in jammed-out organ riffs, spacey synths and warm, undulating bass - comes backed by two fresh 2019 remixes. First James Dexter offers a deeper and woozier interpretation build around even heavier bass, spacey riffs and chunkier drums, before Langenberg wraps the duo's headline-grabbing organ stabs around a dubby bassline and stripped-back drums.

Review: Man of many aliases Petros Manganaris (INFO, The Scientifics, Petter Pann etc.) returns to his most famous pseudonym, Echonomist, for a deep and sensual outing on Dessous. "Keys To Life" offers up a tactile blend of energetic low-end shuffle, spiralling chords, cosmic vocal samples and killer organs. While vintage American deep house seems to be his primary influence (check the skipping drums for proof), he carefully steers clear of hollow revivalism. The seemingly unstoppable Kyodai goes even deeper on his remix, thickening up the percussion and stripping the track back to a booming, late night groove. The EP also includes a tasty dose of hazy autumnal sunshine in the shape of "Fair Ride".

Review: Dessous Recordings - Steve Bug's other label - has always supported the more melodic, fluid end of the deep house spectrum. While recent releases have been notable by the force of their low-end bounce, the label's commitment to musicality remains. This EP from Parisian producer Olivier Andrade continues that trend. "Hype No Tool" boasts sweaty, bumping drums, but it's to the hypnotic, jazzwise piano riff and long, drawn-out chords that the ear is drawn. "Love", meanwhile, opts for more of a cut-up garage revival flex, while "Magic Key" is simply sumptuous. As if that lot wasn't enough to get the juices flowing, there's also a tipsy, loose remix of "Hype No Tool" from Dessous regular Kiki.

Review: It's been nine years since Vincenzo released his much-checked debut album. In that time, he seems to have had a kind of crisis of confidence, because Wherever I Lay My Head is a distinctly different beast to debut Welcome To Zanarkand. For starters, it's distinctly less dancefloor-focussed, instead offering a home stereo-friendly take on deep house that sleepily ambles between weary positivity and sparkling melodic intent. It's a formula that largely hits the mark, offering a somewhat epic mix of gorgeously sunny grooves and melancholic shufflers. Certainly, it will find fans amongst those who enjoy breezy deep house, and when it really hits the mark, it's nothing short of sublime.

Review: On You Can... Safeword continues the long Dessous tradition of releasing evocative house music. "Tangent" features a mournful, neo-trance bass and dubby beats gently reaching upwards to a gradual but inevitable climax. "Feel Inside" also favours a slow build up, with dubby beats underscoring a long melodic build. The title track is somewhat different, its looser beats riddled with playful cowbells and percussive ticks, but it too eventually reveals a seductive synth line. One of the label's main artists, Phonique, contributes to the overall feeling of seduction with a rolling tribal take on the title track, replete with deft vocal snippets and a soaring bass.

Review: Steve Bug's Dessous imprint is one of the best and most consistent deep house and minimal labels going. On Dessous Best Kept Secrets Volume 2, the follow up to 2007's first instalment, they prove it yet again with a compilation that charts both the current and future sound of the label. Full of emotion, warmth and soul, the release serves as a true indication of the label's ethos as a whole and leaves a lasting impression on the listener.
David Durango has been making impressive appearances on Dessous and Poker Flat of late. So much so that the young half Swiss, half Spanish producer was chosen to open this compilation with the first of his three offerings on the release. "Juegos Fantasiticos" opens proceedings with some warm, deep house that sounds as comfortable as it does laid back. "Striptease" showcases Durango's more upbeat side before "Human" delves into a minimal aesthetic courtesy of deft high end percussion, low bass squeezes and acute phaser work.
Alongside smooth, chord-laden house like "Le Groove Rhodes" from Rene Breithbarth and Claire Ripley's "Labyrinth" we get the techno influenced twisted synths of Moodymanc's "Omlette" and the darker more driving sound of "Merise" by Andrade. "New Road FM" by Burnski brings the groove with some cosmic, jacking twists and Graeme Park closes the release with his slo-mo house remix of Ryo Murakami's "Just For This."
Dessous Best Kept Secrets Volume 2 takes you on a delightfully soulful and rhythmic journey of their label. Although the compilation never strays too far away from their signature sound nor breaks any new barriers, it does an expert job of bringing you the vintage and emotive deep house that has made the imprint so special in the first place.

Review: Many of Dessous's releases feel like the audible equivalent of a deep hug - cozy, warm and loving. This three-tracker from young French producer Olivier Andrade is no different. Packed with hazy, toasty deep house, it oozes classy musicality from every digitally encoded second. The choppy, Rhodes-laden "Madness" is probably our pick, though it's pushed all the way in the "standout" stakes by the EP's other two tracks. There's the woozy, bass-heavy bliss of lead track "Egregius" - all cosmic pads and subtle vocal samples - and calming, enveloping late night vibes of "Bac a Sable", whose horizontal chords and laidback melodies recline over a bumpin' US house groove.

Review: "Imagine" is an apt title for deep house stalwart Andre Lodemann's latest effort. Blessed with all manner of intricate musical touches - loose jazz drums, sneaky guitars, dreamy freestyle vocals, deep chords and bubbling electronics - it appears to be the product of a particularly vivid imagination. This is no bad thing; it eschews the standard deep house formula, instead delivering something far more interesting, involving and, dare we say it, playable. The similarly melodic and drifting "Eyes Wide Open" tightens up the grooves, but retains a picturesque air of natural majesty. For those seeking more straightforward pleasures, Alix Alvarez's rework of "Eyes Wide Open" bulks up the beats in pursuit of chunky, melodic deep house delights.

Review: It doesn't seem long since Burnski was taking his first steps in house, releasing promising EPs for Tropez, Infant and 2020 Vision. Now he's something of a grizzled veteran, with the production skills and trademark sound to show for it. As a result, this three-tracker for Dessous boasts some of his strongest work yet. The title track itself is a real peach; a nine minute exercise in eyes-wide-shut deep house that pairs soft and cuddly synths and vocals samples with thick and booming low end pressure. "There's A Cukprit" offers an impressive mix of late night creepiness and post-jack chugginess, while "Watch Out" should inject some much-needed funk into dreary afterhours dancefloors.
