Howdy!
We are very happy to announce the release of the 'Subterranean episodes' EP on Keith Worthy's hot label hailing out of Detroit, Aesthetic Audio.
The EP contains two deep and highly emotional dance floor tracks by Keith himself and a pretty cool track of ours named 'African Flower (Tribute to the Duke)'.
Here's a dope review from Boomkat:
'Keith Worthy's Aesthetic Audio imprint come in with their finest effort to date, drawing together the esteemed talents of Israeli (via Amsterdam) production duo Juju and Jordash, with a couple of superbly deep selections from himself on 'Subterranean Episodes'. The priority cut is given up to Juju and Jordash for their immense 'African Flower (A tribute to the Duke)' on the A-side, a masterpiece of wrong funked and technicoloured deep house. From the disorientating pitch wrenches that open the track you know you're in for something special as the cut develops into a juicy square bassed groove sent from house heaven, laden with golden harps, African guitar licks and an inimitably organic flow and motion that has left us gobsmacked. Deadly gear. Keith Worthy's efforts on the B-side are equally awesome deep house cuts, 'Atlantis (the original Deepstrumental)' is a down slow, deep and organic house cut that begs to be loved while the '(Beatstrumental)' picks up the pace and bowls us over yet again with another beautifully executed house music trip that will touch even the coldest souls. Buttered on both sides. Genius. Buy. Now.'
Here's a review from Dope Jams (Brooklyn, NY): 'Riding high off of his recent stint of wildly popular and musically praiseworthy releases, Keith Worthy returns with another intricate yet minimally effective arsenal of deeeeep dope jams. Formulating a bizarre mixture of Detroit-influenced dance production and ethereal borrowings from the raw and uncultivated musical landscapes of traditional music the world abound, Worthy and bed buddies Juju and Jordash deliver a sound that is definitively based in the urban environments of inner city America while refusing to be pigeonholed in the passé monikers of "Detroit," "Minimal" or "Deep"…well, maybe the latter can't be shaken from standard associations, but at least Worthy and crew do it properly and with a refreshing lens of critical progress that positions their sound far and above the typically lazy house productions of standard policy today.'
And here's a little review from Piccadilly:
"This EP is excellent, one of those that just turns up on a Thursday afternoon and makes you very happy. Kicking off side-A is Juju & Jordash with "African Flower" which is a superb slow burning house number with a fat analogue bass sound, rolling pianos, great off-beat handclaps and a ace slinky groove. Over on side-B is Keith Worthy with "Atlantis (deepstrumental)" a conga led deep house shuffle, that rattles along sweetly until a huge space synth comes in from above whilst the groove rolls on. Next up is "Atlantis (beatstrumental)" which actually has more going on by way of some love synth chords and slightly techier beats."
So far it's available at Rushhour (http://www.rushhour.nl), Boomkat (http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=95408), InterstellarSounds (http://www.interstellarsounds.com), Dope Jams (NYC), Juno and Piccadilly. It should be hitting all the other stores shortly.
Hope you enjoy! :music341:
