Behind the Deep House : Release Notes
The Nick Curly and Gorge helmed 8Bit Records offers up a new EP courtesy of Peruvian artist Chinonegro, entitled ‘Groove Theory’ and comprising four original compositions. In recent years, Peruvian DJ and producer Chinonegro has been making waves across the global electronic music scene with his distinctive fusion of deep grooves, hypnotic rhythms, and Latin-leaning sonic textures. Renowned for blending rich cultural influences with raw, classic House sound design, he has rapidly carved out a unique voice in contemporary club music. Now he returns to 8Bit, the long-running and widely respected Mannheim imprint celebrated for its signature groove-led sound, shaped by its founders and a global roster of artists. ‘Groove Theory’ opens the release, pairing organic percussion with choppy stabs, a buoyant bassline, and finely processed vocal cuts. ‘Jungle Soul’ follows, dialling into a swinging rhythm section anchored by a rolling low end, rising string tension, bright chord accents, and hip house-inspired vocal hooks. The second half of the release sees Chinonegro link up with Ande Butano. ‘Chardonnay’ delivers an airy, low-slung house groove first, built around drifting dub chords, spoken-word vocals, and crisp drum work. Closing the package, ‘Chiclayork’ unfolds as a loop-driven jam, propelled by tightly layered synth chops, rolling organic percussion, and deftly filtered samples woven throughout. distributed by HS Consulting & Distribution GmbH // Housesession GmbH
