Review: UK producer Oliver Malin, AKA Romaal Kultan, serves up four forward-thinking deep house cuts for YAM Recordings. 'Isit' sits on the deep house/broken beat cusp, riding a stuttery electro rhythm with nagging garage-y organ chords, vocal microfragments, dreamy keys and a throbbing bassline. 'New Levels' is a sparse, deep garage-y pounder, all tuff kicks and hazy synth chords. 'High And Mighty' follows a similar MO to 'Isit' but built on an old-school funk/soul rhythm, while finally 'Turnin' is a stripped-back, percussion-led affair with jazzual overtones. If you like your deep house on the more cerebral side, you'll find plenty to enjoy on this EP.
