Having spent 2020 bouncing between Tropical Disco, Suol and Ondule Recordings, Hurlee confidently strides into 2021 and the loving arms of Esuoh. Those who appreciate his chunky, energy-packed take on deep house will find much to enjoy throughout, from the bumpin’ beats, warm bass, dreamy chords, smile-inducing organ stabs and hazy horns of ‘Never Love’, to the tough but spacey, kick-drum-driven deep house funk of closing cut ‘Chicago’. Sandwiched in between you’ll find the smooth and groovy late-night headiness of ‘Crystallic Sunshine’, and the rolling chunkiness of ‘Sweet Keys’, where glassy-eyed female vocal samples catch the ear. Tried-and-tested tastiness from a master craftsman.
