As the son of house and techno legend Kevin Saunderson, it is no surprise the Dantiez evidently has a natural gift for production, having himself said “no doubt my father was a huge influence. Watching him in the studio, when I was growing up, was amazing”. For the title Dantiez collaborates with KPD, the Spanish DJ who has gained residencies across the globe and released across big labels such as KMS, Pacha Recordings and now Defected. ‘Place Called Home’ features the soulful vocals of LaRae Starr, who has featured on another Defected release; Phil Agosta’s ‘Lonely’. Her vocal is dominant and has a sound that definitely reaches back to older house records. The track has a rolling baseline and melodic tune that paired with the vocal add a real musicality to the club track. The release also features a remix by Kevin Saunderson, whose Deep Edit Dub makes only slight variations to the original, making it slightly deeper making it more bass-driven. The final track on this release, ‘The Harp’, is more relaxed than ‘Place Called Home’. The track is again vocal, but less dance floor oriented, with the harp-like sounds giving the track a more tranquil feel.
