Given that Creative Swing Alliance’s Pablo Valentino owns Faces Records, it’s surprising that this is the deep house duo’s first single for the label (it’s doubly surprising given that the imprint has been active since 2002). Happy, the Weekend EP was worth the wait. Each of the four original tracks delivers the perfect balance between tactile soul, chunky dancefloor grooves, rhythmic swing and heady musicality, as if their aim was to sit somewhere between Moodyman and Motor City Drum Ensemble. Arguably the EP’s standout moment though, is Rawinthecity boss Fulbert’s remix of “The Way You Need Me” – a dusty, ultra-deep groover capable of sending shivers down the spine of even the most sober of punters.
