UPFRONTBEATS

Sliding in the slipstream of a huge wave of big hitters, underground anthems, and vinyl drops on his own Moxy Muzik imprint; Darius Syrossian lands on Pets with three premium late night jacking jams.

Madly, besides a remix of the label bosses Catz ‘n Dogz a few years back, it’s actually the house heavyweight’s first full release on Pets’ So he’s making up for lost time with a trio of serious treats. Each cut bounces and flexes with that ageless warm-and-widescreen vibe that took seed in the 90s and has been relevant and unanimously loved ever since.

‘To The Groove’ hits like an old Pooley affair with obese bass/kick thumps and dreamy horns wafting away over the top. ‘Love One Another’ swaggers with a warp that you could imagine taking the roof off Back To Basics at any point in its 30 year history while ‘MIDO’ wraps up the EP with a dubby, rolling vibe that wouldn’t have gone amiss on an old Champion Records or mid 90s Deep Dish set.

Heaving with a heady sense of Detroit, UK, Berlin and Balearic heritage, this is nothing but timeless, full-flavoured and focused on nothing but the groove’ Just as the title suggests. Massive.
