Jonny Love House – Alfresco Disco

Jonny Loves House Alfresco Disco
Staying firmly in dancefloor territory, here we have the latest from rising UK producer Jonny Loves House.

It's a four-track affair. Bounce is big, squelchy and lightly disco-fied, and wouldn't have sounded out of place on Credence back in the day. Matter is pacier and techier, Loose pairs a strident, techy riddim with slightly housier leads, while finally Even If – the pick of the crop for me – is all about the big fat bassline, which is augmented by (quite poppy) female vocal snatches and wonky, off-kilter keys.

Should you be of a mind to jack your body this festive season, these four tracks will serve as musical accompaniment admirably.

Out: This week

About: This comes on Jonny's own self-titled label… they live here and here (website, Soundcloud). And also in Brighton, if you must always live so relentlessly in the real world.

Johnny Loves House – Mobile House Sampler Part 2

jonny loves house mobile house sampler
A three-track sampler from Brighton-based producer Johnny Loves House here, on his own self-titled digital label… and it's cracking stuff.

Crying works a looping "Didn't this feel like love?" vocal in a manner that recalls Booker T's classic Didn't I? (as Underground Mass on Azuli, for the non-oldsters), atop a fat, chunky b-line, crisp beats and the odd retro stab. Morning is another slightly retro-leaning affair, with more old-skool synth action and more chopped-up vocal snips, while Yesterday rounds out the EP, a slightly more deep n' groovy affair…

Jonny cut his teeth on the East Midlands free party scene, and it shows. If you dig the funky, garage-tinged deepness of the likes of DiY, Inland Knights and The Littlemen then these three straight-up 'dancefloor deep' cuts should please you for sure.

Out: This week

About: You can find Jonny Loves House – the man and the label – at his website and on Facebook. Oh yeah, and you can also get hold of this EP via Bandcamp.

Jonny Loves House – Mobile House Sampler Pt 1

Okay, after that brief sojourn into blissed-out downtempo territory, we head back onto the dancefloor with three cuts of rollicking deep house from Brighton boy and free party veteran Jonny Loves House.

The three tracks are favourites from the Mobile House live set which JLH has been performing lately. Latin Punk is neither particularly Latin-influenced nor particularly punky, being instead a lively, struttin' affair with disco leanings and some great jazzy, tinkling electric piano. Next To You operates in very similar territory but now with the addition of female vocal cut-ups, before Way Out brings the EP to a close with an attitude-y, punk-funk-ish female vocal and more of those irresistible electric keys.

Solid stuff to get asses shakin' on deep house floors as you move towards peaktime.

Out: This week
