 Resident DJ - Grant Paterson - Floorfillaz - Oct 22nd 2010 by The Guide Clubland 


VARIOUS ARTISTS - Elements Volume 1 (Electric Sheep)
An eclectic selection from the Electric Sheep boys. There are too many tracks on this uber-EP to list. but for me, it's Joe Jamato's seriously funky house tune, Let Me Try On, with it's body-moving bass-line and old skull techie stabs shines through.

MARTIN DAWSON - Double Six EP (King Klong)
Another fine release from one of the funkiest house labels around. Top picks here are Double Six (both mixes). Ramon Tapia take disco/funky house to new limits with his hypnotic mix. Running To Sthlm (Original Mix). On the flip is a bit special too. A bacc-heavy tribal cut with an edgy thump and head churning groove is fantastic. Not to be missed.


BEN GOMORI - I See The Trouble With You (Baker Street Recordings)
Taken from the trouble EP, the slice of uplifting pro house is a dreamy cut. A lush arpeggio rolls over the top of direct beats and builds with clever programming and solid bass groove that is reminiscent of the halcyon days of Renaissance. In actual fact the whole EP is well worth a purchase as it's a regal choice for house prefects.


CLUB RAYO - DIRTY WAY EP (Area Sur)
A super release for the South American group known for producing quality, deep, sexy grooves. The remix pack has a vibrant take on the original house tracks, including Martini Dry, a tech house rework by yours truly (that'll be the Grant Paterson Remix),. For me however, Rayo's majestic track Sin Luz, is the one, it rides the line between deep house and softer edged techno. There's something for everyone here, funky soulful house to tight tech workouts, and it's available everywhere.


POLARSETS - Morning EP (Kahula)
These Geordie boys are well worth a listen, thanks to their special blend of indie electronica. This three tracker is nothing short of amazing, trance influenced Morning is a fantastic melodic track with vocals that sweep soulfully. The Giom Remix is a deep house beauty, which marries the union of soul, rock and funk. Bonfired meanwhile has elements of the best of 80s indie, packed full of emotion and nigh short of perfection.
