Martin Virgin – Down/His Name Is Jack

Martin Virgin Down His Name Is Jack Unrivaled Music
And from Hype Muzik to vaguely related label Unrivaled Music. This week, the Essex crew serve up a two-tracker from one Martin Virgin, about whom I can't tell you, well, anything really.

I can tell you, though, that Down is a slow, chuggy deep houser with Italo/electro overtones (lots of squelchy analogue synths, basically) that's probably best suited to warm-up play or afterhours sessions, while His Name Is Jack isn't the retro acid-fest you might expect, but rather a laidback and soulful beach house-style groove, with some cool disco strings.

It's the latter that edges it for me but yeah, another solid bet.

Out: This week

About: Unrivaled Music – again, as you know – is part of the Endemic stable. The main Endemic website seems to be out of action at the mo' but you can also find 'em on MySpace.
