Something’s happening right now in Ireland. There’s an energy which is epitomised in the emergence of homegrown talent rising through the ranks all over the island. House of Disco, having recently moved back to the Irish shores, let loose their first 4 track sampler EP in 7 years, ‘Home Turf’, showcasing the best in under-represented young Irish producers.
Taking the first slot, Dublin’s LPM hones in on that signature HoD sound with some expertly interlaced late ’70s samples, reworked and repackaged into a bomb of a filtered, disco house, hand-raiser that’s got sunshine stamped into it’s very core. Newbridge locals, Mix & Fairbanks then offer up a deep, synth-laden gem, drenched in weighty stabs, analogue melodies and squiggling top lines.
On the flipside, the young gun from Killarney, Shee gets soulful for ‘Me You Us’ with low-slung vocal samples and hazy pads layered over the top of swirling disco loops. Lastly, Wicklow native Purple Ice signs off this killer Irish EP with a blissful, piano infused groover that’s eyes closed ecstasy from start to finish.
Bang on!
REVIEW
In sporting terms, statistics tell us that teams do better on “home turf”. It seems a fitting title then for House of Disco’s latest multi-artist extravaganza, which is the musical equivalent of a thumping 5-0 home win with free beers and hugs at full time. The standard is uniformly high throughout, from the bounding bounciness of LPM’s rap-sampling disco-house cut “Get With It”, to the impeccably warm and sun-kissed jazz-house vibes of Purple Ice’s “Adeus”. In between you’ll find the rolling, synth-heavy warmth of Mix & Fairbanks’ deliciously loved-up “Shergar’s Revenge” and “Me, You, Us”, a chunky sample-house number by Shee full of swirling strings, looped guitar riffs, hazy chords and righteous spoken word samples.
