With PRIVATE GOLDs newest offering the inimitable Cologne producer MARTIN BEUME has really taken a huge and achingly beautiful step in his songwriting and production. Some might know him from releases with CONNAISEUR or BRUT! Records, but this record is miles higher… Wisps of detail adorn each song like edible gold flake on a luscious chocolate ganache cake. Synths flutter and glide like summer butterflies and even the percussion is precious and clean. This is not to say it is only good for home listening. Lead off track SOLID RUBBER has a tough and sexy deep house sway with echoes of Brazilian bossa nova laid over its more traditionalist Chicago House and Jazz. LSDEEP, has the full dirt stomp necessary for a forbidden tryst, but sneaks in smart samples and emotional filter washes to add unexpected depth. At 105bpm, you might not expect WIP CATCH to fucking groooooove the way it does, but trust me kids, things are getting slower as we are getting older. And it feels great. Soaring orchestral strings married with perfectly cut vocal samples are sure to get the more adventurous DJs hypnotizing dancefloors like musical svengalis. And when you thought it was all over, AXEL BOMAN turns in an amazing remix in his instantly recognizable non-traditional style. This dude is a lothario. All hip shake and cooing come-ons, its a reduced house gem that slinks its way into your pants.
