Reviews & Discussion
Probably the best EP on this label by far... and the rest is damn good too! "Caught Up" is my favorite one, although "Tonky pumps" is the one that gets the crowd going (funny how ladies actually react to it in a quite positive manner). Kudos to Darshan and Morgan, this EP has given pleasant evenings over and over.
'Caught Up' is a timeless midtempo classic, like the dream night encounter of deep Detroit house with tender disco strings played live, the whole recorded with analogue equipement and acoustic instruments and percussions which gives it a unique warmth. Very hard to avoid gooseflesh when the strings come back in. Essential tune that tells a real story.
