Paris Groove – Portalis 06:37
Pierre Moritz – Fewnolder 06:07

For its first outing, freshly minted deep house label Virage has decided to put together a sampler style EP featuring cuts from members of their extended crew. Pierre Moritz kicks things off with the rubbery bottom end bounce, dreamy chord sequences, loon bird samples and cerise-hued synthesizers of “Fewnolder”, before Alva doffs a cap to the likes of Nathaniel X, Ron Trent and Chez Damier on the chunky U.S deep house warmth of “Jean-Paul Groove”. Elsewhere, Paris Groove reaches for the squeezable acid bass and rolling drums on peak-time bumper “Portails”, while Madcat plays around with spacey synths, jacking beats and heady old school vocal samples on solid closer “Yes I Do”.
