Truely speaking,prior to this release I had only heard of Moodymann in passing and I didnt know that Ben Westbeech had any production abilities,but after getting this release I know in no uncertain terms that these two will grace my sets on a regular basis.First up is Desire(Moodymann remix),the song is SEXY,SULTRY and SOPHISTICATED.It has that 60s speakeasy jazz sound and it is a perfect example of how sometimes,less is better than more.The instruments linger somewhat softly in the background and Mr James serenates you with his impeccable voice.Love(Ben Westbeech Remix),is the more upbeat than the A-Side but,it works.Crisp,punchy,beautiful.Its the song youre more likely to play on a saturday night and it can hold its own in any set.This release is truely a gem and one I intend to hold on to for the rest of my days.It would be silly to let this one go
