UPFRONTBEATS

New York talent David Berrie brings his unique house music vision to the Play It Say It label, rounding out their year in true style.

Berrie started sneaking into New York clubs in his early teens and has been deeply entrenched in the scene ever since. From hip hop to disco to techno, he brings a wide spectrum of sounds to his productions, which have come on Hot Creations and Cuttin Headz before now, as well as Play It Say It. After a big residency at DC10 in Ibiza this summer, he now impresses once again on the production front.

It is ‘Inhibition’ that opens up with a slick sci-fi groove and taught bass that is perfectly bumping. It’s an occult atmosphere for late night dancing and the Twilight Mix is layered up with mind-melting cosmic synths that take it even deeper. ‘Cherry Bomb’ is another minimal house masterpiece, with slick drum rhythms and underlapping bass all making for a supple and succulent groove that gets you in a state of hypnosis. Last of all is the punchy ‘Buchabeats’ which has stylish jazz chords and garage percussion all run through with freaky vocal samples and trippy little effects.

This fantastic final release brings Play It Say It’s 2019 to a close with typically high quality and forward looking tracks.
