Our next release: "Keep On feat. Robert Owens" on Dessous Recordings with Two Armadillos, King Britt & Stimming remixes!

release date: 27.07.08


press release:

Following the certified hit status of their previous Poker Flat release at the start of the year, London duo Dan Berkson & James What return with another heady collaboration with their mate, Robert Owens!

We've come to expect nothing but quality from this pair of sonic craftsmen, and this special delivery from their London studio is nothing short of magical. 'Keep On' is a straight up soulful vocal cut that keeps the energy locked in amongst a finely-jacked modern house roll. Tightly swung beats work a deep sub bass undercurrent straight to the floor, allowing Owen's silky vocals to shine through. Dessous Headquarters Alert: Summer Anthem!

Recent Dessous rising stars of the deep and fellow Londoners Two Armadillos have built something special with their remix which climbs and climbs through mystical valleys of early morning, dewy splendour. A solid pumping kick drum underpins a totally blissed deep house vibe thats full of energy and their trademark hybrid of classic vs modern.

Finally its an honour to welcome Philadelphia's King Britt to Dessous, remixing 'Keep On' into a spaced out acid-disco monster. Chunky warehouse style acid house meets futuristic mind bending minimalism in this very unique and defining remix.

This EP really highlights the true scope available within the best of House music today, and the power such songs have to uplift and infuse us with positivity, brightening even the darkest of mornings, and keeping the summer alive!
