cat #: DRD033D
release date: 11th May 2009
Friedrichshain boy Marc Poppcke has shown himself, over the last year, to be one
of the brightest young producer talents to emerge out of Germany. His blend of
soulful, groove-laden deepness has won him an army of admirers, and his releases
and remixes (as a solo artist and alongside production partner Daniel Solar) for
labels including Meerestief, MoonPool, Kina, Ostwind and Diynamic Music have
found support from the scene's biggest names.
DJ, Singer and Producer
Virginia is in a hot vein of form right now. Having just released the wonderful
'From Above' with Butch on Area Remote, and with releases lined up on Plastic
City, ADR, and Pokerflat, alongside label boss Steve Bug, 2009 is set to be a
big year for the multi-talented artist.. Her delicate and warm tones add a
unique and dynamic element to her productions. Today's release is another
wonderful example...
Lead track 'See My Eyes' is a beautiful piece of
music. Crisp Toms open the show, classic deep synth stabs, and as the sweet
vocal opens, a deep rumbling, rolling bassline.
Track two see's the
original reworked by regular Darkroom Dubs artist Andy Graham aka Sei-A.
Renowned for his deep and lush productions, here again he takes the same route.
Staying true to the original and respectful to the vocal, he creates an epic
soundtrack, and one that will again please his fans and many others...
Rounding out the package Marc & Virginia bring us the sound track to
all of our Saturday nights with 'Freaks'. Wicked handclaps, brilliant vocal and
rolling drums make this a dead cert for everyone's sets....
Darkroom
Dubs deliver yet another choice house release for your record boxes, bags and
wallets... remember to keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming remix packages of
the Silicone Soul singles... closer than you might think!
Enjoy!
