Title: Passage
Artist: The Astral Walkers
Label: Deepblak
Cat Number: DBR-V031
Genre: Deep House
A1: Passage (Full Experience)
B1: Passage (Astral Stroll)
A double header
of two alternate mixes of the same track coming in at just under ten minutes a
time might not always appeal, but putting one’s DJ head on and hypothesizing on
the multiple possibilities of getting lost in the layers of groove whilst in
the mix certainly should. ‘Passage’ recalls vintage Ron Trent and Anthony
Nicholson; the ‘Full Experience’ has the more clarity, full of sunshine,
thumping but dampened percussion, tropical guitar licks and piano flourishes.
The ‘Astral Stroll’ is more raw, more nebulous, but still retains a refinement
and many similar instrumental hallmarks. A double header of lush soundscapes
within which to contemplate one’s existence, and the futility of it in light of
the bigger picture? Quite possibly.
