+ Various: Liberate Recordings Sampler
:: Liberate
There's all kinds of stuff going on in this four track sampler highlighting the recent work of Doc Link and Eman's Liberate Recordings. "Escape" by vocalist Angel-A meets its destiny in the hands of Jon Cutler, who has of late been hammering out the boundaries of a signature sound that I haven't heard anyone even try to imitate. All of these are for the deep crowd, including Single Malt Syndicate's "Lady from Islay" which is remixed here in ultra-deep tech style by Mr. Todd Terry. "Soul Liberation" mixes some jazzy keys and downtempo beats with a haunting refrain. Demarkus Lewis handles remixing here with a steady hand, letting each beat resound without cluttering up the mix.

 

+ Where Can I Find It?

The entire sampler doesn't appear to be on sale anywhere. Individual singles with additional mixes look like they're on sale at Traxsource. -tm
