Miguel Graça & Ladybird - All I Wanna Do (Viva Recordings)

Miguel Graça’s discography is known to connoisseurs of deep house, through his 12” singles dating back to the mid-90s to releases on his Montreal-based Pronto Musique imprint. For “All I Wanna Do,” Miguel enlists Ladybird, the legendary French/Australian vocalist best known as the voice behind Soldiers of Twilight and the F Communications smash “My Precious Thing.”

“All I Wanna Do” presents fresh, understated deep house, deftly combining Miguel’s sleek music production and Ladybird’s affecting vocals. The bass line pulses as swooping synth pads and techy chords flavor the midrange. Ladybird’s lovely voice speaks for all of us as she sings, “All I wanna do is dance, babe.” Also included is Miguel’s crisp, uptempo Vibe Dub, an instrumental of the original version, and an exquisite Beatless Mix for those come-down moments. It’s another exceptional pack of tracks from Viva Recordings.
