LV Premier – Souldynamic – Bamako [Samosa Records] & EP Review
Italian Duo Souldynamic have been turning the heat up considerably over the last couple of years. Releasing a steady stream of original tracks, remixes and their well loved disco reworks they have popped up on some of the most respected labels out there from King Street and Tribe to BBE. Consequently their remixes have adorned the releases of some of the most legendary performers from across the electronic scene including Louie Vega and Dennis Ferrer.
Their latest release the West Side of Afrika EP see’s them land on the irrepressible Samosa Records. They are also having a glorious couple of years with one sell-out chart topping release after another so it’s a well made match.
Comprising four tracks of afro centric house and percussive African disco it’s a wonderfully warm and inviting release.
Lead track Guinee fuses easy going percussion with an effervescent bassline and a wonderfully expressive vocal. It’s a track which is easy to get lost in, one for those communal loved up dancefloor moments.
Faranah is a more laid back affair, again leading off with layers of percussion its swirling dual vocals and brass stabs give it tons of feel-good zest
Over on the flip Bamako is the deepest cut on the release. It’s pounding bassline cuts through the speakers, creating immeasurable straight to the dancefloor energy. Wonderfully succinct playing and a ridiculously hooky vocal top matters off perfectly.
Final track Beyla is the perfect way to see the release out. Energetic brass stabs power the track. Couple those with some brilliant looped up percussion and it’s a track which will fit a variety of situations from the more laid-back to the peak-time. Indeed the percussive break down midway through is worth buying two copies for.
Another powerful release from the Samosa stable!
