(06:12)Dutch techno and electro veteran, Orlando Voorn has been even more prolific than usual of late, delivering must-check EPs on Kompakt, Bombis and Bad Manners. Voorn’s new outing on Burek, a Croatian label that’s genuinely going places, is rather good too, though musically far more colourful, funky and house-influenced than we’ve come to expect. Check first sweet, summery and boogie-influenced opener ‘Soul Society’, before getting your ears around the heady piano-house stomp of ‘Lovin’ You (Shine)’ – a superb slab of celebratory retro-futurism – and the warming haziness of twinkling deep house cut ‘Waters Run Deep’. Elsewhere, ‘Funk Isolation’ adds undulating bass guitar, swirling chords and bleeping 8-bit melodies to a hot-steppin’ house beat, while ‘Waters Run Deep (Beatless)’ reinvents that track as an ultra-deep drift through ambient space.
