Ben Westbeech feat Rahh Times Are Changing

Description

Originally released digitally last year, Ben Westbeech’s Glitterbox Recordings debut was certainly an ear-catching affair – a sparkling, piano-rich slab of organic soulful house wonder topped off with a sublime lead vocal by unheralded artist RAHH (itself a surprise, given that Westbeech is a brilliant vocalist in his own right). Finally on vinyl, Westbeech’s sublime original mix of ‘Times Are Changing’ comes backed by a trio of reworks, two of which come from Two Soul Fusion – AKA NYC house legends Josh Milan (Blaze) and Louie Vega (Masters at Work). They first deliver a hard, hot-stepping ‘Bronx dub’ – all bouncy, Afro-house insired beats and squelchy synths’ – before slamming down a suitably big, energetic soulful house ‘remix’. Westbeach’s own tribute to early 90s piano house, the ‘Takin’ It Back Dub’, completes a fine EP.
