EP Review: Darque Ft Kaylow – Difference

November 2, 2011 By Darren Rose

Artist: Darque Ft Kaylow

Title: Difference

Record Label: Peng Africa

Release Date: 4th November 2011

Genre: Deep House

Additional remix production by:

Mawuli Kojo Akusa (Kojo Akusa)

Tebogo Mojapelo(The Antidotes)

Suggie Suges(Suges)

Bright Ledwaba (Bright Breeze)

With so much music available at our fingertips, the unfortunate reality is that we tend to trail through countless tracks in an attempt to discover those gems and in the process we are often faced with sub-standard productions which can leave us slightly disillusioned about the current state of musical affairs.Β Thankfully, there is hope and even more positive is the fact that quality deep house is being produced right here in our own country.

β€œDifference” is a beautifully smooth, deep and soulful five track EP which oozes quality and grace with soothing vocals courtesy of Kaylow. The original mix is simply outstanding and an absolute pleasure to ones ears with a laid back, swooping melody and moody sax which is guaranteed to instill a sense of calm.

It has an infectious groove which will have you nodding your head and tapping your feet without you even realizing.Β This is the kind of track you could happily put on repeat, close your eyes, sit back, relax and enjoy – a true gem.

The quality continues throughout the EP with a variety of impressive interpretations from a selection of remixers while remaining true to the soulful beauty of the original.Β The Antidotes provide an equally smooth offering with subtle piano keys and synths while Suggie Suges deliver a version with a little more tempo and percussive elements well suited to the dance floor.

The pleasure also continues with Kojo Akusa guiding us into a deeper stripped down version which still contains all the quality elements of the original but with the bonus of a subtle Afro-Deep percussive sound.Β The closing track takes us right back to the chill zone with the aptly named β€˜Bright Breeze’ the Acoustic Jazz Remix.Β Another impressive release from Peng Africa and when there’s music like this being produced in our own back yard there’s no need to look elsewhere for quality Deep and Soulful house.
