Bobby Breezy & Col Lawton - Low & Dirty (Viva Recordings)

Hailing from Newcastle upon Tyne, Col Lawton is one of house music’s producers-of-the-moment with cuts for the likes of King Street, Atjazz Music, Salted Music, and many more doing damage on the Traxsource charts. Bobby Breezy is a deep house staple with his long-running Native Soul Recordings imprint and productions also appearing on the likes of King Street. These two skilled DJ/producers have teamed together for a rousing new single on Viva Recordings titled “Low & Dirty.”

Starting with a tight rhythm track as a call-to-the-dancefloor, “Low & Dirty” unfolds with whisks of percussion hisses and shimmering staccato chords. The stereo field comes alive with spoken vocal drops, organ riffs, and dubbed out vibes. A deep, funky bass line keeps things rolling as the tracks moves through its dramatic breakdown to a satisfying climax. “Low & Dirty” will do the business, whether in a DJ mix, in the nightclub, or boomin’ in the headphones.

Bobby Breezy & Matt Mason - Spare Change (Viva Recordings)

Native Soul’s Bobby Breezy joins multi-instrumentalist Matt Mason for “Spare Change,” a new single on Viva Recordings that prescribes a dose of feel-good energy. These two have been catching attention with their uplifting deep house vibes, with a track set to appear on a forthcoming King Street compilation. But first, “Spare Change” excites the dance floor with tough, swinging beats, an old school bass bounce, and cool riff exchanges courtesy of trumpet, jazzy guitar, and keys. The live playing is masterful and catchy throughout. Things get funkier as the legendary Demarkus Lewis comes on board with a pair of top notch remixes. Lewis’s Deez Triple D mixes layer extra keys, pads, and melodies over his trademark house rhythms, leading to a peak moment in a deep house DJ’s set. These are necessary grooves, giving the floor some positive late night action.
