Mr G – The Remixes EP

Description

Mr. G continues to be a bastion of the greatest deep house emanating out of the UK, and that practice extends to the artists he chooses to roll with. On this latest 12″ on Phoenix G, he’s reaching out to various characters for remixes which dial up the soul and don’t necessarily play it safe for the floor. Kai Alce’s ‘New Feel’ of ‘U Feel Mi’ is a gorgeous bath of sprightly Rhodes and sax flex, but it’s more concerned with jazziness than simple riffs to keep a crowd pumped, even if there’s a sharp beat underneath. Mango Boy takes two very different runs at ‘Full A Love’, with the ‘On A Vibe’ version especially impressing with its beatless rhythm mantras for the DJs who like to tease.
