Local Action

Launched by Tom Lea in 2010, Local Action is a London-based independent label that specialises in high-energy, high-emotion electronic music - but with a scope that goes way beyond that, having some of its greatest successes with leftfield international artists like Dawn Richard and Lena Raine.
A decade into operation, it's built an enviable catalogue of classic records, from T. Williams' 'Heartbeat' and DJ Q's 'Brandy & Coke' to recent hits like Finn's 'Sometimes The Going Gets a Little Tough' and India Jordan's 'For You' - and also launched its club-focused sister label 2 B REAL, operated out of Manchester by Finn.

Review: Local Action regular Finn frequently delivers inspired EPs that sit somewhere between dancefloor melancholia and rush-inducing euphoria. This trademark blend of bittersweet bliss once again comes to the fore on his latest release. For proof, check 'A Good Place', where a yearning female vocal sample is contrasted by New Jersey garage organs, sparkling piano riffs and a sparse but impactful house beat. He's at his melancholic, floor-friendly best on 'Getting Off (It's So Good)', where emotive chords and lo-fi lead lines tussle for attention with deep sub-bass and skittish drum machine beats, while 'R U Still Well' is an organ-sporting deep house number that sounds like it needs a hug. To round things off, he ups the tempo on 'We Better Make a Move', which boasts some heady, minor-key chords.

Review: Following their collaborative work on "Trust Again" and "Through The Night", Q and Louise Williams deliver yet another insatiable garage groove. Q's groove jacks and struts with presence. The organs pump with warmth and weight while Louise delivers her trademark emphatic vocals with panache. The result is that feeling that you've known this tune all your life even on the first listen. This is the third single from his forthcoming album, and we can't wait to hear it.
