After sneaking out a non-club release for it’s 50th release, Four:Twenty head back to the dancefloor with “Return to Jah EP” from Tsuba main man Kevin Griffiths and Okain.
Between the two artists, there’s a fair amount of positive reputation to bring to the release. Griffiths, a veteran of the UK house scene has taken his Tsuba label from fledgling imprint to one of the worlds finest house labels in just a few years while also developing a DJ career which has seen him grace some of the finest clubs in the world. His recent productions for Tsuba have also seen him get an unprecedented amount of support for a new recording artist, with media and DJs all leaping on “Cantona Kung Fu” and his debut, “Jaguar Shoes”.
Okain, aka Samuel Thalmann, has little to worry about career-wise, too. Since 2007 he has established himself as a purveyor of increasingly tight house grooves while also delivering some outstanding collaborations with fellow Frenchman, Paul Ritch.
“Return to Jah EP” launches with Griffiths solo take of “Jah”, a shaker driven cut which fuses gluey congas with a soft, padding kick drum while organ chords and vocal effects provide a rich backdrop for a sparingly but effectively used dub vocal sample.
Okain and Griffiths team up for the heavier, bass driven “Jah Dub” which has a more late-night feel than it’s original mix while Leeds’ man and Cocoon artist Simon Baker delivers a superb remix characterised by jacking grooves and a heady organ-led break.
Finally, Griffiths and Okain pair up for closer “Cuba Quest” where a nagging bassline and rolling percussion are all that’s needed to create a beat-perfect club groove of the highest order.
This is yet another feather in the cap for Griffiths, Okain and, of course, the brilliant Four:Twenty
COMING SOON!!! GLIMPSE - Four:twenty Mixed, Remixed and Edited
Bristol’s Four:Twenty, imprint deliver one of their “Music” label compilations early 2010, this time featuring a selection of the labels brilliant catalogue compiled, mixed and re-edited by Glimpse.
Christopher Spero, aka Glimpse, had an exceptional 2009 with releases gracing Planet E, Cadenza, Kindisch, Buzzin Fly and his own Glimpse Recordings as well as his heavily supported single for FourTwenty so was first choice to handle the British imprint’s 3rd compilation.
FourTwenty itself hasn’t had a bad run, either. Releases featuring the likes of Solomun, Locodice, Andomat3000, Class71 and Two Armadillos have seen the label establish itself as one of the leading lights of forward thinking, dancefloor house.
The mix clocks in at 59 minutes and features some of the true highlights of Four:Twenty’s 50 release history. A staggering 27 tracks are combined into a subtle, moving and delicately driving mix which not only shows off the label, but mixer Glimpse’s deft skill in the studio and behind the decks. Each track has been lovingly edited and segued, and has been done with respect and musical understanding.
The likes of Move D, Lauhaus and Luna City Express rub shoulders with FourTwenty-unearthed gems such as Cherry, Mowbray & Sullivan and Suelo (who stands with the unreleased “One Week”) in a mix which sums up FourTwenty wonderfully.
‘Chris is fast becoming known as one of the best young producers out there, he oozes class and his knowledge of all things musical is sublime I wanted Chris to choose tracks from the label and re-interpret them in a 60 min mix, i think he's managed to capature the essence of the label showcasing some of the great releases we've enjoyed whilst managing to put his own unique stamp on, he's delivered something pretty special'
