Deep House Recommendations July 2010

Review: With Juno Records hitting its tenth release we revisit yet another classic from the archives of electronic music royalty. Producer, label boss, DJ & remixer extraordinaire, Charles Webster will need no introduction to house music lovers, and it's his 1998 collaboration with renowned UK vocalist Shara Nelson which gets a 2010 touch up. Orignally out on the seminal label Pagan, "Sense of Danger" was a true deep house anthem back then and Stuttgart's most famous son, Motor City Drum Ensemble steps up with two contrasting but equally excellent remixes. The 'Other Thing Dub' revisits the Raw Cuts sound that MCDE is famous for - Nelson's vocal expertly chopped up over organic piano grooves and a chugging beat. The second vocal mix stays truer to the tough beats and metallic synths of Webster's original, a real Chicago feel provided by the ebullient hats and dubby bass line.
