About

  • Shift LTD's second instalment of their 'Basement Traxx' VA series, a solid 4-track complation from label heads DNArt and Gianluca Marcelli and their guests Petr Serkin and Lady Blacktronika. After having released great music from the likes of Enrico Mantini and Jordan Fields, Shift LTD is back with its fifth release, a Various Artists from some of the label's very own DNArt & Gianluca Marcelli. We start with DNArt dj's 'Rubbers (Bassmental Mix)', a classic 90's house track characterised by dreamy pads, a warm baseline and a looped male vocal cut that sits in the background and gives that extra groove to the track. Next up on the A-Side, the Russian producer Petr Serkin brings the energy ups with 'Mayak', a straight-up 4/4 floor filler for the early hours. Saturated crispy percussion, a xylophone-like synth and the bubbling bass-line are what make the difference in the track. If I had to choose a closing track for a festival I'd definitely keep this one in mind! On the other side we have the label owner Gianluca Marcelli with 'Grab It'. The Florence-based producer delivers a deep cut full of swinged percussions and dusty sampled synth lines. On B2 we have Akua Grant aka 'The First Lady of Deep House' aka Lady Blacktronika. Her track is entitled 'Changing Your Love', a smooth deep journey with a female vocal cut saying 'She Changed Your Love', moody pads and hypnotic percussions. -ULTRASUONI RECORDS http://www.ultrasuonirecords.com/ecommerce/product.php?id_product=3704 -WORDANDSOUND http://www.wordandsound.de/article/96428 -JUNO http://www.juno.co.uk/products/dnart-petr-serkin-basement-traxx-vol-2/590197-01/ -DECKS.de http://www.decks.de/t/various_artists-basement_traxx_vol_ii/c62-64 -DEEJAY.de http://www.deejay.de/SHIFTLTD005_-_Various_Artists_-_Baseme… -TRIPLE VISION http://www.triplevision.nl/release/SHIFTLTD005/ -DISCOPIU http://www.discopiu.com/detail.aspx?ida=101675 -HHV.de http://www.hhv.de/shop/de/artikel/v-a-basement-trax
