Gregor Yan – Earth

About

Spain’s Deep Explorer has always operated on the edges of the deep house universe and now they turn there again with this heavyweight 12″ from Gregor Yan. It’s the sort of classic sound that made first rave deep practitioners like Larry Heard and later Glenn Underground so well revered: musical, lush, layered. Drums feature but are often soft and subtle, with the chords and hi hats doing much of the work to get you in a groove. Highlights are plenty, but the serene and sombre shuffle of ‘Garage’ takes some beating.
