London's Luke Dean makes big moves again, this time on the emerging Reliance label. He's someone with a healthy reverence for garage pioneers like MJ Cole and Todd Edwards and brings that to his own house perspective. To date, he's landed on the likes of MicroHertz and neXup recz and played everywhere from fabric to Circo Loco. This latest EP is a bold and club-ready slab with garage and house combined into muscular rhythms with smart samples and hooky pads. 'Coast2coast' is the one for us - a tight, bouncy cut with a nod to the old school that is going to be pure bait for dancers.
