Steve Lawler’s IVAV welcomes one of house and techno’s most respected and consistent artists: Yousef.
Chest deep into another year of exceptional broad, bold house brush strokes, already in 2017 the Circus boss has whisked us off to utopian lands of bliss on “Life Is Too Short”, he’s probed our innermost yearnings on “Pleasure Defined” and he’s rattled our booties on “Yeah”. Now he’s taking us back to his roots…
‘Noir’ strips off a few layers to reveal a shoulder-slinking jack where walloping snares, shuffling hi-hats and a warm undulating bassline suddenly move aside for a breath-taking synth ripple that leads to a subtle but hair-raising build. Total deep theatre with a few twists along the tale.
‘Eight’ hits with every element that ever made house music bump in the first place; mutating bass, a groove that won’t sit still, a dynamic that teases, a short sharp shock of spoken word and a rolling drum sound that taps right back to the original party source.
No nonsense grooves loaded with detail, movement, surprise and emotion, Yousef’s bang on the money once again.
