David Duriez - Down The Ground ep

    David Duriez is back ! This is the first self produced ep of the man for ages so expect something banging !! This ep features 3 tracks including 'Life in an illusion' a "flooresque" anthem with a catchy 'coup de theatre'. Also featured 'Down the ground', a classical Duriez's journey into deep & banging sound. One of his best recent work released on Phil Weeks imprint.

Continuing his barrage of releases, one of Paris’ most productive and best loved producer’s, turns up the heat once more with an impressive EP for Phil Weeks’ under-rated Robsoul imprint. “It Suits me Down To The Ground” is a Dr. Jekyl and Mr.Hyde tale, as a ruffed up dopey bass and sullen faced synth glare, while utopian keys and a gracious vocal show the other side to the coin. “Life Is An Illusion” is a psychological thought provoking number, whose forceful bite come courtesy of spoken vocals, a jagged synth and eerie keys. My personal favourite “Afraid Of No Ghost” rounds things off superlatively, with its shining golden keys, ravishing bass and Chicago influenced acid. (Jon Freer)

    Killertracks und dabei so einfach. Duriez hat es einfach raus, ähnlich wie
    die Freaks oder ein paar befreundete Acts loszugrooven mit einer sicheren immer funkigen Techhouseart und genau im Richtigen Moment mal einen skurrilen Sound loszulassen um dann im Break richtig böse loszugehen. Rockender Housesound der minimaleren Art der einfach perfekt inszeniert ist. Auf der Rückseite mit noch mehr grabender Bassline und luftigeren Beats und sogar mal einem Oldschooligen Akkordstakkato das sich rings um die perlend rockende Bassline windet und ein sehr flatternder jazzig schwirrender Track voller Harmonie und Ruhe.
