Behind the House : Release Notes

Potency rolls into double figures with a new release from Malik Kassim, aka Retromigration. Following albums and singles on labels including Love On The Rocks, Rhythm Section and Wolf Music, the tenth release on Crombys rapidly-evolving, floor-focused imprint locks into the sound of one of house musics most consistent and consistently exciting producers, seamlessly bridging the established Potency energy with a luxurious vision of the genre. Love Rock summons an instant block party energy, showcasing the expert weight of Kassims basslines, as well as hinting at the fusion of hip-hop and jazz that bubbles through the textures of the German-Nigerian producers studio work. Meanwhile, I Do Dance stays true to the promise of its title, delivering blissful sun showers of synths amid emotional pads and hints of the classic Korg M1 organ sound, a universal signal to party. Ushering in the flip, the more tightly-wound percussion of Neighbourhood maintains Kassims driving groove, while dancehall samples and dub influences expand the established Retromigration sound into new spaces. Finally, Go 2 Nowhere completes the dance, masterfully blending pillowy breakdowns and wistful keys with the EPs most urgent groove. Rich in detail while keeping the floor in constant motion, I Do Dance reinforces Malik Kassims timeless touch for unmistakably modern house music.
