Review: Columbian producer Felipe Gordon joins forces with Belgian artist Krewcial in an exciting collaborative EP, immersing listeners into their shared sonic universe. Inspired by their mutual passion for cycling, this EP takes you on a thrilling journey through various textures and terrains, transcending into moments of luminosity while delving into deep atmospheres. The EP commences with "1972", a captivating opening that blends intricate percussion with a compelling, driving bassline, akin to conquering steep hills during a cycling expedition. Next up is "Dying", featuring uplifting choir vocals that infuse a gospel-inspired sensibility into the undeniably funky bassline. Following is "Answer", navigating between clean and satisfying kick drums, interspersed with sharp snares while Session Victim is offering a beautifully ethereal reinterpretation.

Review: There's lots to love about Felipe Gordon, not least his jazz-funk-tinged deep house sound and a work ethic that ensures a regular stream of rock-solid releases. The Colombian producer begins his latest Shall Not Fade outing with the ultra-deep jazz-house/deep house fusion of 'The Love' - all meandering Rhodes solos, hissing cymbals, jazzy drums, sustained synth-strings and looped bass guitar - before joining the dots between rubbery electrofunk and uplifting deep house on the classy and addictive 'Da Ghent Life'. He reaches for dusty clarinet samples, twinkling pianos and dusty deep house beats on 'More Than Grateful', before attempting to get us to throw our hands in the air on 'Natural Born Climber', where stretched-out sci-fi chords, elastic synth-bass and jammed-out piano riffs catch the ear.

Review: Is there a more on-form deep house producer around than Felipe Gordon? If there is, we've not come across them. The Colombian can do no wrong right now and his latest EP for Shall Not Fade is another must-check affair. He goes in hard to begin with, peppering a retro-futurist Chicago house groove with heady piano riffs and tactile chords on 'Analog Only', before cannily combining jazz-funk bass, Herbie Hancock synths and sturdy deep house beats on 'Continuous Develop'. Fans of jazz-house will love the vintage St Germain vibes - albeit with a touch of squelchy synth-bass - of 'Keepin' It Jazz' and the more becalmed 'Looking Your Reflection on the Water'. Closing cut 'What You Say', a simply sumptuous chunk of warming, heavy-eyed deep house headiness, is also excellent.

Review: There's no denying that Felipe Gordon is one of the most in-form producers in deep house right now, with each successive release from the Colombian seemingly being even greater than the last. He's continued this rich vein of form on A Landscape Onomatopeya, his first full-length for current home Shall Not Fade. The set is naturally rooted in his jazz-funk flavoured brand of deep house, where post-boogie synth sounds, warm electric piano chords and soft-touch jazz guitar solos rise above wonderfully huggable dancefloor beats. There are plenty of ear-pleasing deviations scattered across the album though, from the Azymuth-goes-house brilliance of 'The Colombian Excursions of House Music' and the head-nodding downtempo haziness of 'Wez', to the rare groove style dustiness of 'Howl' and Guru style jazzy hip-hop beats of 'Wake Up'.

Review: As the title suggests, this dazzling EP is a trans-Atlantic collaboration between two genuine rising stars of house music: Colombian Felipe Gordon, and London's Cody Currie. Musically, the overriding theme of the EP is loose-limbed jazziness and the warming colour of jazz-funk, with the pair setting the tone via the ultra-deep broken beat vibes of 'Better Days' and the sparkling deep house/jazz-funk fusion of Ally McMahon hook-up 'Cold Nights'. 'Late Nights' is a cheery piano-house number laden with spacey synthesizer flourishes, while 'Our Love' is smooth and soulful deep house at its very best. The EP also includes a solo track from each, with Gordon's languid vocal deep house number 'I'm On Fire' being followed by Currie's bumpin' and bass-heavy 'No Future'. In a word: essential.

Review: Bristol-based Shall Not Fade has recently made some shrewd signings, not least rising stars Earth Boys. They've also secured the services of another producer getting plenty of props, Colombian Felipe Gordon. The Bacate Exploration, his first EP for the West Country outlet, is predictably impressive. It sees him bounce between rubbery, Jazz-funk influenced disco/deep house fusion (the heady and addictive title track), acid-fired deep house jazziness (the slick and warming 'Deep (For You)'), classic-sounding US deep house warmth ('(To) Get My Shit Together'), bustling dancefloor funkiness ('The Five Ohh Seeex') and colourful, life-affirming house headiness ('Manzanero's Despair') - all while wielding his trusty bass guitar and some suitably vintage synths.
