Luis Machuca - Where Are You (Friskybeat Records)

Luis Machuca, arguably Canada’s hardest-working underground house DJ, returns to Friskybeat on a follow-up collaboration with vocalist Michelle Ross. “Where Are You” arrives in two versions, each offering up a deep slice of soulful, intimate dance floor sounds. The Disco Soul Mix begins with sweet electric piano before crisp four-on-the-floor beats, a prominent and bouncy synth bass, and Michelle’s beguiling vocal performance take over. The tune builds with strings, arpeggiations, and busy percussion — all elements combining for an emotional ride. The Dub Mix takes things even deeper, with warm, rhythmic pads, dramatic piano chords, and echo effects on the vox. The result is a sleek cut perfect for the latest of late night DJ sets.
