MANUEL PEREZ - Feever

LACE008

At last, Feever is out for real! Deep house heads will be able to get their hands on this solid hips-twister, finally released on Lace Recordings with a bunch of expansive mixes.
For a few months the original track has been tried on specific dance-floors, played by a selection of dedicated DJ’s, so we know the damage it can make.

Thanks to his long experience in that genre of dance music, old-school DJ/producer Manuel Perez has achieved a classic cut, with the purpose of creating something timeless away from superficial electronic music trends: Tight beats, hypnotic conga loop, low pitch bass, analogue keys, deep chords, dub delays, discrete vocal stabs… this is the combination that Feever is about for maximum spiritual dancing pleasure.
Obviously, the original track has also got something sensual due to its blend of Latin rhythm and Soulful vibes.
Perez’ other version is named “machines dub” - stripped down with analogue synthetic bass-lines and wide effect action – and is intended to more minimal/tech-house oriented DJ sets.

Tunisian electronic music hero DJ Mourad (Soul People Music, Selekta, NDM, Surge rec, CyberJamz…) seems to have been well inspired while remixing it, to the point he had to deliver two takes: His “Carthage remix” transposes the atmosphere of the original version in a dreamy way, floating onto killer house beats flavoured with north-African percussion patterns.
Further developed “Gothenburg remix” offers an additional urban vibe to this project.

The most different and alternative remix of this package is definitely Raph Dumas’ take.
Enjoy Recordings first protagonist combines perfectly Feever’s original parts, adding an uplifting vibraphone line that is sparkling over a calf-shaking subsonic bass-line while horny stabs are grabbing attention. This perfect collage based on disco-break-beats and vintage R’N'B flavours invites funky dancers to get down with style under a sky of spotlights…

With those five versions this chic release will certainly strengthen the classy image of Lace Recordings’ label catalogue.
