Silky Beats Vinyl & CDs

Review: Will & Batty touch down on the fourth instalment from this skyward-facing label with four slick and sunny rollers that practically demand a rooftop setting. 'May We Come In' is a velvety warm-upisoft pads and jazzy chords inviting us into the duo's breezy world with ease. 'Bubblin' brings a touch more bite with its skipping drums and slippery bassline keeping dancers light on their toes. On the flip, 'The Big Three' leans into bounce and sparkle with classic West London swing while 'Sometimes I Wish' closes things out on a sweeter note, doused in soul and longing but never losing that effortless glide. You can hear how much fun these two are having and it isn't overworked, chin-strokey deep house but something looser and more alive. Bright, tactile and perfectly timed for open windows and warm evenings, this one locks in the label's feel-good ethos with ease.
