Noble Square US 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: oli review

Review: Ricardo Miranda is a DJ and producer from Chicago who heads up Noble Square Recordings. The Deep & The Lost (A Collection Of Lost Music) is his latest album compilation featuring music from the archives that is unreleased, lost, unappreciated and unavailable. Whether it's the deeply evocative opening cut 'Heirs of Rhythms' reaching near spiritual moments in the vein of Joe Clausell, or the soothing mood music of 'Turntable Blues' on the first side, or the dusty, down 'n' dirty vinyl exclusive '118 Deep Vibes' and the sensual 'Storm Clouds' featuring the Latin Soul Brothas - this is really one for the heads. Tip!

Review: House music doesn't get much more authentic than when cooked up by someone like early American great Boo Williams. The big man has that perfect combination of killer rhythms and meaningful synths. That's ably showcased right from the first cut here - 'Living Waters' pairs competing drums with sombre chords that really get you here it hurts. 'End Of Days' then gets more upbeat with chunky drums and raw perc overlaid with jazzy melodies that keep you locked in. There is unbridled piano joy to 'My God' which will raise any roof and 'Fruits Of The Spirit' (dub) is more mellifluous and zoned out for tender late night sessions.
