Happiness Therapy France 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Jesse Bru lays down the first in his 'Chronicles Of Bru' series, which narrates the comical tale of an ambitious young man whose sole goal is to save the planet from the false excesses of climate catastrophe and environmental decay. Somehow, this vision of sonic ecology translates to deep, ambient trance and piano house, which is funnelled stylistically into five new heaters for France's Happiness Therapy label. Faint birdsong and overblown Chicago-esque motifs are laid down in a quickly successive, through-composed fashion, as if to suggest that the political project that ignites change should be one of musical, harmonious enjoyment, not of stingy utility, where house music cannot be heard.

Review: French label Happiness Therapy celebrates five years in the game with a new various artists collection that very much shows what it is all about. All deep house varieties are explored here with Moglis 'Stay That Way' kicking off with some stylish house depths before the tried and tested house rawness of DJ Steaw does his usual hard edge but compelling thing and artists like Baka G & Denyl Brook, Crowd Control & Strandtuch and Groove Boys Project, Fasme & Dusty Fingers all continue to explore the dynamic and driving world of deep house with plenty of forward thinking designs.
