YANN POLEWKA Vinyl & CDs

Review: Esuoh White's fifth transmission is all about cooking up feel good house sounds steeped in classic references without ver getting too nostalgic or obvious. Yann Polewka opens things up with 'Stronger' which is a delightful filter jam with muffled melodies and piano chords topped off with a lush vocal. Reece Johnson mines a similar style with equally effective results and then Ezequiel G taps into a 90s Us house sound with the bumping drum funk of 'Don't You (Edit)'. Last of all is the most wild and expressive with Beaux Arts offering up the twitchy synth loops and clattering percussive energy of 'Arrogance'. Dancefloor dynamite for sure.

Review: The GLBDOM label is on a roll and we don't want it to stop. As was the last with the seance EP, this one is a various artists' affair pressed on nice heavy vinyl to match the heavy sounds. Ollie Rant opens with the quirky melodic leads and sleazy deep house loops of 'Aaaww Yeh' before Manuold brings some Chicago bump and grind on 'Roots.' The hats and drums are perfectly raw and lead you 'Deeper Underground' and into the jacked-up hands of Yann Polewka. Last of all comes some cheeky garage swing and swagger courtesy of DAN T's' nice dry 'Hold Me'.
