Mike Gnacadja is the type of producer who needs balance in his life. When Luca aka Curses! aka Drop The Lime introduced him to us under the name Mikix The Cat, little did we know that a week later he would start bombarding us with a neverending stream of amazing tracks, each belonging to a cryptic, unheard-of subgenre of house. While unleashing his hard bass-driven rave bursts as Mikix for Luca's label Trouble & Bass, Mike kept his lighter, more playful side away from the public ear, but not from the Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team's hard drives. Influenced by the sparse sounds of the house music of Now, as well as a rightful return to the African rythms of his Beninese roots, channelled by his move from Paris to Berlin, a new face of Mike Gnacadja was born, we decided to name it Momma's Boy (after the restaurant in Curb Your Enthusiasm).
