Evolve - Son of Sound (Sistrum)



Title: Evolve
Artist: Son of Sound 
Label: Sistrum
Cat Number: SIS-SOS
Genre: Deep House

1: Evolve
2: The music
3: Be About It

I like house best when it transcends the norm, and Patrice Scott’s Sistrum has always had the capacity to do that. There’s a depth, soul and gravitas present on certain releases which oozes from the grooves and manages to stay contained without straying into outright self-indulgence. This release from Henry Maldonado is a sun-kissed, jazzy triumvirate of percussion-led euphoria that recalls humid nights on the Cote d’Azur in the mid nineteen eighties that I wasn’t present at, but wish I had been.
