New year, new release for Burnin Music. After 2 strong EPs in 2017 (Ponty Mython BM001 and Leonidas +Kay Suzuki BM002) Burnin Music first release of 2018 features the first EP of an up-and-coming British artist called Michael Iwatsu also featuring a remix by German producer, SoulPhiction. Fracture (Original mix) is a 10 mins long journey. A beautiful odyssey between beats and harmony, between intuitive dance floor and subtle emotions. The main Piano brings a perfect balance to the stomping house kick & drum. And as the journey continues, the trip develops leading to more sonic ventures. Exciting, touching, pure, Fracture (Original Mix) is a very balanced track. On the flip side, house music master Soulphiction accomplishes the task to bring the track into a dark basement. His remix is a condensed version of everything that makes the original track an emotional one and also add a Detroit twist: it becomes a raw, moody and very intuitive sonic object. A tool for the dancefloor.

FAZE ACTION
Michael Iwatsu produces edgey music that has a deep house edge running all the way through. He's not afraid of mixing things up and not following traditional arrangements. He is bold and he should be commended fo this.

This is absolutely wonderful. The original version does exactly what you said… it STOMPS! with a subtle underplay that's going to be loved by switched on dance floors anywhere it's played Soulphiction somehow manage to create a version that echoes the OG but paints it's own thing. SO SO good! SO SO Deep!

JONNY NELSON /GRAFITTI KINGS / TAG RECORDS
Fracture - Certainly suits the title, all over the place and out of sync which adds to the solid nature of this track, takes you on a journey you least expect. Great track, different and unusal but a super groove. Fracture (Soulphiction Jazzed Up Mix) - And like you say, on a Detroit tip which I adore. This doesn't dissapoint. Love it. Deep as you like. Will support, great pair of mixes.
