Jacques Renault - High

Jacques’ back! After outings on Shall Not Fade, Take Away and Barefoot Beats, Let’s Play House co-founder Jacques Renault returns to the imprint with a predictably solid six-tracker rich in club-ready jams that touch on a number of tempos and styles. Slo-mo disco heads will love the sample-heavy, slap-bass-propelled chug of ‘Jam On It’, while ‘Lookout Rhythm’ offers a more intense, percussion-rich and peak-time-ready take on low-slung disco-house. The edit-not-edit approach continues on the hazy and driving ‘Play That Thing’, while ‘Torrid Drums’ is deep, jacking acid house with a gloriously melodic twist. ‘Got That Boing’ is sweaty, breathless and sleazy, while closing cut ‘High’ is sparkling, lightly modified take on a piano-rich boogie gem.
