KITO JEMPERE 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: The Freerange label ain't messing about; this fourth chapter of their 20th anniversary release is just as on-point as the previous three releases, and no less of a body mover. "Songs Without Words" by Milton Jackson is one of those house anthems you imagine looking out into the night sea on a warm summer night, full of beautiful chords and a thick pulse of a beat; Kito Jempere comes through with a similarly breezy tech-house tool on "Finland Express". On the B-side, the great Pittsburgh Track Authority speeds up the pace with the shuffling, intergalactic groove of "Oculus Sinister", and "A Night In SA" by Kuniyuki offers something a little different, a smoother, more jazzy construction with a broken beat feel that fits mighty well with us.

Review: The acclaimed Kito Jempere joins Cherrystones and DJN4 on the label for 2020, with an album full of international minds. Working with array of collaborators across a cast of friends including Jimi Tenor, Wolfram, Hard Ton, Lipelis, Rich Thair (Red Snapper), Ruf Dug, Cedric Gasaida (Azari & III) and many more, presenting this, his third long play.

A hail of freedom of thoughts and voices before these changed times, recorded and shared across continents. Kito - following releases with DFA, Lo Recordings, Bordello A Parigi, Hell Yeah and Duca Bianco - acts as curator rather than conductor, the idea not to transform the contributions but allow them absolute.

Sending music and receiving back, nothing was touched to keep the truth and honour. From Tokyo to London, Berlin to his base in St Petersburg, trusting the chosen artists led to a broad palette, as his 4/4 driven funk expands with Jazz horns to Motorik percussion, Avant-Reich vocals to White Isle melodies, J Pop Balearics to Chanson stories wrapped around Club memories.

A true world meeting, crossing borders and genres. An eye on the dance floor and week long chill outs. With remixes from the likes of Samo DJ, Lipelis, Cable Toy and more to follow, this is more than Yet Another Kito Jempere Album.

Review: Die geschichte von Bahnsteig grows. Groovers des Herzens!

East Reise zu St Petersburg. Krieg und Frieden. Vaterland to Mothership.

Und wer ist das but Kito boy wunder.

Nach Baha we gehen funky drummer. Trommel boom trommel.

Kosooka and Delay Yugo...don't stop der gesang.

Melnna disco reise at last! Herion is mein freund ist das ende. Glue kopfe.

Panzer Peoples wir lieben dich!!!

Review: Kito Jempere is quietly building an impressive discography. Over the last two years, the St Petersburg-based producer has delivered material on Freerange, Let's Play House, Dirt Crew and Fata Morgana. Here, he pops up on Room With A View, serving up another pair of must-have deep house treats. Opener "I'm Saved" is an intriguing proposition, with Jempere layering Nu Groove style synthesizer flute lines and dreamy touches atop a wild, loose, heavily percussive groove and bouncy bassline. He wanders further towards organic house territory on the intriguing "Jun", a near 12-minute workout that sounds like a cross between live disco-house, Sueno Latino, and Theo Parrish.

Review: Kito Jempere's (Freerange Records, Dirt Crew Recordings, forthcoming on Let's Play House and official remix for Red Snapper will be out on Lo Recordings UK) solo imprint Fata Morgana returnes with first remixes EP. After debuting with his full lenght 'Objects' on this remix EP Kito gathers producers who were keen on his album, on A-side u will find swedish finest HNNY (Local Talk, Studio Barnhus, Let's Play House) and newcommer from Poland i Selvy (released now on Legendary Sound Research and forthcoming on Trasatlantyk). On a flip u will find Jacques Renault's (Let's Play House, Let's Get Lost) version of 'Emotion' track and Cold Chillin' Inkswel (Wolf Music, City Fly, People Must Jam) version of 'Virheita'. On next remixes EP you can expect Ptaki, Titonton Duvante, Suzanne Kraft, Ruf Dug and others. This remix EP is mastered by Kuniyuki Takahashi (Mule Musiq).

Review: In the second round of surefire house goodness from a celebratory Freerange Recordings, your ears and record decks get treated to four slices of contemporary tackle from a spread of artists committed to pushing things forwards. Luv Jam kicks up the dust with a playful sensibility on the bouncy "Hamburglar" before Esa & Mervin Granger take a more fluid approach to deepest house with "Goema Heat". On the flip Freerange mainstay Manuel Tur brings some serious emotion to his piano notes without losing the funk on "Laguenesie", and Kito Jempere slides into squishy dub tones with a little help from Jerry The Cat and Ruslan Gadzhimuradov for "This Is Why We Do This".
