Soulight - City Talk EP

Soulight City Talk EPA four-track EP from the ever-reliable Endemic Digital here. I’m not actually sure who Soulight are cos there’s zero information with the release, and I can’t look ’em up or anything cos I’m writing this on train… but the EP’s quite good whoever they are.

Taking it track by track, City Talk itself is straight-up deep house from the dreamy, drifty end of the spectrum. Soul is, as you might expect, a more soulfully-inclined affair, although still almost totally instrumental (there is a voice intoning the title buried quite deep in the mix but that’s it). Just Here is slightly more unusual/interesting in that it manages to fuse proggy and soulful elements, while House Crisis rounds out the EP with a little dancefloor bump n’ bounce (albeit that’s bump n’ bounce on the very deepest of floors, you understand).

All told, there’s no reinvention of the wheel going on, but it’s a very checkable selection. If I had to pick a fave, it’d be a toss-up between House Crisis and Just Here, but TBH I’m liking all four.

Out: This week

About: Well, as I said before I can’t really tell you anything about Soulight, and I’ve propped Endemic noff times, so here’s their website and we can move on...

  1. Soulight is the name of this duet formed by Matcelo Mato & Nicolas Borromeo, two musicians from Argentina who started producing together 3 years ago. They both have a lot of experience in the artistic scene: Marcelo playing as a DJ for 8 years at the best clubs and festivals of Buenos Aires (Creamfields, S.A.M.C, Pacha, Bahrein) and traveling all around the country; and Nicolas with plenty of concerts as a guitarist and keyboard player in several bands including genres such as Jazz, Funk, Dub, Reggae and Rock. This has allow them to unify knowledge and consolidate as partners regarding music production.
