This is a strong three tracker on Fred Peterkin’s Soul People Music label, a label that is part of a handful of contemporaries where every new release is worth checking out. Move D’s contribution is spread all over the A side, making room for the brooding bassline that kicks in near the beginning of the piece which is joined by an off-beat 303 acid line that snakes it’s way in and around the rest of the track. Just as you’re about to be lulled into a trance-like state, some lighter elements appear and, putting my train-spotter anorak on, what sounds like a sample of Lt. Commander Worf from Star Trek: The Next Generation repeatedly uttering the phrase “We can not know”; indeed, neither can I!
Although I’ve been playing the Move D track the most since I bought my copy, both the other tracks are worthy of mention. Steve Oh’s simple yet engrossing percussive construction that harks back to earlier house tracks with what sounds like a vintage sample from which this track derives it’s title. Black Jazz Consortium’s (mis-spelled Black Jazz Constitution on the labels) appropriately titled track has a reflectively meditative looped sound throughout, complimented with some flowing keyboard sounds. A solid release that warrants support, pressing sounds like it could be limited so check soon with your favourite online or physical music retailer.
Tracklist:
A Move D – Aspiration 2010
B1 Steve Oh – Work Dat Shit
B2 Black Jazz Consortium – The Om

Wow – the Move D must have sounded astounding on a club system – you were privileged to hear it out then.

This is a stunning release. I have to stretch the budget to purchase the vinyl; I can’t stand not owning Work Dat Shit
