It’s not enough, and it’s over simplistic to label this release as ‘deep house’. However, I’m sticking with it as house is a feeling and this release does touch the parts others cannot reach. Tinged with nostalgia, the warmer months and a pervasive sense of the no longer attainable, this release from Foool offers the listener a view to an aural landscape created by a cross pollination of styles which all collide together in a coordinated mass of seemingly contradictory interventions. There is a great use of spoken word throughout, which only adds to a skilful deployment of harmonious dislocation. The remix is notably different in tone, being much smoother and linear. It does chime in with the looking back in order to look forward feel of the rest of the release though and, in doing so, seals the optimistic gloss on this very engaging collection.
