I definitely prefer Tonky Pumpz which was a hit on the famous parisian Radio Nova. 132 BPM! Can’t wait to mix this tune with some techno from detroit.
-
This is possibly the only record I want to be buried with. Kelley Polar Quartet on strings. Morgan and Darshan behind the tune...such a timeless work of art!
-
Personally, I would class "Caught Up" as my #1 favourite deep house track. Such emotional nuance married with impeccable arrangement is incredibly rare. -
"Tonky Pumpz" is the one on this EP. Funky, pumpin', does its work on the floor. The rest of this record is not very interesting in my opinion. -
Edited 12 years ago"Caught Up" uses samples from both sides of Inner Life's "I'm Caught Up (In One Night Love Affairs)"
-
Edited 11 years agoProbably the best EP on this label by far... and the rest is damn good too! "Caught Up" is my favorite one, although "Tonky pumps" is the one that gets the crowd going. Kudos to Darshan and Morgan, this EP has given pleasant evenings over and over.

Edited 19 years ago'Caught Up' is a timeless midtempo classic, like the dream night encounter of deep Detroit house with tender disco strings played live, the whole recorded with analogue equipement and acoustic instruments and percussions which gives it a unique warmth. Very hard to avoid gooseflesh when the strings come back in. Essential tune that tells a real story.
-
Caught up is such an emotional release. Sounds like there is no electronica involved at all. It can be fit in every set from deep-house/garage to Detroit techno. Every style is in it. Think this will be the most sought after record within 5 years from now. TOTAL GEM
