Patrice Scott is
responsible for a certain strain of deep house. It’s certainly not unique, but
he tends to make the genre his own whenever he releases a record. Blending the
spiritual with funk and a strong layer of swing is his hallmark, at least
that’s what I think. However, while
this approach is evident on two of the tunes here, it’s when he dives deeper on
‘Feels So Good’ that he’s at his best. Overall, the trio here are saved from
being lumped amongst the more generic examples of their type by an innate
talent for manipulating the position of the many inflections which occur across
their breadth, the summery disposition of the title track and ‘Instant
Gratification’, being divided by the more bottom heavy.
