Austere can mean >lacking trivial decoration< and >not extravagant< which is exactly what the ethos behind this esoteric new label is about - raw, real and underground. The first ep from Laak (pronounced >lock<) is true to the roots of house music. Warm pads, discreet analog melodies and vintage drum patterns. Along the way giving a huge nod to Chicago, Detroit and the forefathers of the genre. Already receiving support from Jus Ed on his Underground Quality Radio Show and quite a few other players, dont sleep!
