Release notes
The fourth FRI release will be out by the end of September with an EP that carries the right amount of emotion for the season. It could be said that La Riff provided the ideal soundtrack for the end of summer.
La Riff delivers four tracks that offer a plethora of Sun Haze-like textures and pads that are smoothly combined with juicy basslines that meld into a solid house drum groove foundation.
The EP "Smooth Dancer" captures La Riff's current production and musical sensibility as he expands his sound into the deeper house grooves while maintaining his ability to tastefully blend slices of disco and funk influences.
The second track, Perchey's L'Observatorie, stands out as an excellent fit for the FRI concept, with La Riff successfully utilizing characteristic electro elements such as Roland 808 's for drum rhythm and a classic 303 electro bassline beneath lush chords, setting a feeling of nostalgic tone.
As the third and fourth tracks, respectively, Waxy and Cosmic Dust share a deep house sound aesthetic. La Riff effectively accomplished this by incorporating organic instruments like sax and flutes with glimpses of progressive basslines as a key ingredient for the resulting sound of an EP suitable for beach house music themes.
