Mr. Bootsauce - Open Senses (Viva Recordings)

After the success of his Do It Right EP, Mr. Bootsauce returns to Viva Recordings for the stellar new cut “Open Senses.” Known for top tracks on labels like Salted, Large, and Good For You Records, Mr. Bootsauce honed his craft at Los Angeles’ weekly UNITY party. His DJ’ing motivated his productions, developing a deep, thumping sound that transmitted musical emotion on the dancefloor.

“Open Senses” is a swirling slice of deep house, featuring a tight rhythm track propelling warm, filtered chords and a ‘relaxing’ repeated vocal drop. Wooshes and booms accentuate the smooth vibe, fitting the sound right in the Viva pocket. Things get deeper still with the Deep Mix, adding an infectious bass run and sparse breakdown moments. This one will prove that it’s possible to dream hard while the feet are grooving.

Mr. Bootsauce - Do It Right (Viva Recordings)

Viva Recordings is proud to welcome artist Mr. Bootsauce from Los Angeles, known for joints on some respectable labels such as Salted, Large, and Good For You Records. His early house music pedigree was carved out in Montreal and later at a successful weekly party called UNITY right in the heart of Los Angeles. Mr. Bootsauce has always elevated his craft by making sure his cuts translated to deep thumping grooves where a simple shake or a head-bob would get the party going.

Tracing his roots back to jazz and rock, these influences are present in his Viva Recordings debut, the three-track Do It Right EP. It promises to fill various styles of DJ crates containing house music to deep house to nu-disco. Straight, bounding bass, thumping grooves, and precise rhythm elements all come to fore in Do It Right.

The EP begins with the title track, exhibiting crisp drums, warm pads carrying the melody, and cool vocal drops rhythmically placed throughout. “But I Know” follows adding some uptempo shuffle to the proceedings. It’s a flurry of percussion partnered with a gritty low end ride. The EP closes with “If I Speak,” a special treat for the depths of an after-hours gathering. Its sparse arrangement is complimented with a cool spoken vocal and atmospheric flourishes galore. Yep, this EP goes deep.
