DESCRIPTION:
UK house standout J Fader returns to Panama Red with a full EP
follow-up to his remix for Antonio Caballeroās previous āNext
Upā single. Fader gets to work right away with a jumping, San
Francisco house influenced track āJazz Thing (Aināt
Misbehavin)ā, the jazzy piano and vocal snippet nicked from Ellaās
standard, āAināt Misbehavināā brings the Harlem Renaissance
right in to the 21stCentury and out on the dance floor, making it
sound relevant and fun for times as uncertain as they were way back in
the Thirties. Chicago legend Greg Norwood opts for a tougher, leaner
version on his remix. Big loping bass lines and wicked congas replace
the jazziness of the original, but Norwood still wisely retains the
vocal snippet for a sweet breakdown.
The second original, āSassigo Discoā, is a chunky bass line house
cut with sweeping filters and punchy horns in the classic deep house
tradition. The vibe is soulful and bright, perfect for any crowd.
Emerging producer Arek Zagdan adds a techy flourish to his remix of
the track for a deeper, heady side of swinging Chicago house via
Warsaw.
āBounce For Meā closes out the release on a high note with a
third solid original on an already stacked EP. The horn accents keep
the jazz feel intact throughout but the bass line and subtle melodies
give this a hidden b-side bonus kind of feel, one to have in the crate
for that special late night moment and keep the trainspotters
guessing. Label owner Antonio Caballero saves the best for last with a
roughed-up remix of āBounce For Meā that packs a funky wallop with
a huge wobbling garage bass line and filtered horn line hooks. Itās
a perfect ending to another must-have house music collection from
Panama Red Records.

ABOUT J FADER:
Five tracks and a total of eight mixes here from rising UK talent J
Fader, who hails from Portsmouth ā not generally known as a hotbed
of house talent ā and who's had stuff out before on Clean House and
Slick Music (it says here).
For our purposes today though, we're gonna have to treat Mr Fader (I
very much doubt that's his real name, don't you?) as an unknown
newcomerā¦ which makes the quality of the music contained herein all
the more pleasing. Cast your mind back to a time around 1995 or so,
when UK garage was just on the brink of emerging but hadn't quite yet
fully distinguished itself from US house ā think early productions
by Booker T as Underground Mass, Grant Nelson, Fran & Ricky in various
guises, Gavin M in his 'DJ Face' days, etc ā then you're somewhere
in the right ballpark as regards the overall vibe here.
Not going to go into individual tracks one-by-one cos there's too
many of them, but the EP as a whole is long on crisp, skippy beats,
live-sounding basslines, warm pads, jazzy minor-key piano licks, yada
yada yadaā¦ you get the idea. If you remember the days when UK garage
had more in common with the deep house scene, long before loads of
hip-hoppers came in and spoiled itā¦ well, you're gonna love this.
Class in a glassā¦ of Moet, natch.

FEEDBACK
Merlyn Martin [Subdivisions Global Radio]
Jazz Thing Original for me - Solid!
DJ Nova [RodonFM]
Doooep EP. Floor and bar friendly tight house works and remixes. Mad
jazzy ''Jazz Thing'' with Ella's Fitzgerald original sampler on the
breakdown is ace and its latinized remix by Greg Norwood with all
those percussions already stole my heart. Jackinā, swinginā and
jazzy āāSassigo Discoāā Original aims to make you sweat on the
dancefloor and Arek Zagdan Remix offers a more sofisticated version.
āBounce For Meāā original is a pure underground jazz influnced
track but its remix by Antonio Caballero Remix forward it to the right
dimension, a funky key and fat and strong bassline makes it wicked.
