Seuil returns to Freak n'Chic this autumn with 'Freak & Violence', a two tracker which sees the Parisian leader-of-the-new school take his impeccable sound into deeper, late-night territory.

With huge releases for Eklo and Moon Harbour since his last ep for Freak n'Chic, Seuil has been a name on many a lip and with this sort of output it's likely to remain that way.

Warm synths and a tweaked spoken vocal dominate the title track, "Freak & Violence". The synths have an ethereal, trippy vibe but are balanced by ultra-dry, ultra-groovy drums while the vocal slips in and out of audible significance which makes for a hugely absorbing listen.

Flip over and "Lost In the Soul Shower" holds a similarly deep stance, but does so in quite a different way. Sparse keys and complex but subtle drum programming give way to the ebb and flow of distorted, filtered organs which, combined with Seuil's usually superb arrangement, takes the track into "killer" territory.

This is a wonderfully fresh take on deep house and the perfect antidote to the self-consciously clichéd proponents of the noble genre as well as being another sterling release for Freak n'Chic and Seuil.

i love Freak & Chic very much. a badass release as to be expected. ive heard this guys name a bit and there is obvious reason for that. killer vocal sample on Freak & Violence. really unique track all around. i love it. Lost' gets me as well. this guy uses organic sounds/programming in a way that isnt so fuckin cliche and obvious. THIS IS HOW TO DO "that." 110 percent support.

I will play "Lost In the Soul Shower" this weekend. It has a light dreamy looseness that I like. One of the chords sounds a bit like a locomotive, which is nice.
