A SLAMDUNK!!!
Directions by Dj Essential-i is a valiant comeback and solid mission statement backed by American songstress Samantha Faison and SA's Vuky J and Nativeroots. This cut changes hands three times with the Nativeroots Main Vocal Mix, Vuky J's Soulful Vocal Mix and Nativeroots dub with the charm of Samantha Faison flowing without sounding gimmicky. 

The EP is too heavy and provides an optimistic jolt to the contemplative proceedings and also fits well within the nostalgic premise. An instant classic supported by the likes of QB Smith, The Advocate and Vinny Da Vinci. A great job well done of setting a high standard to the South African House scene with cascading drums, funky guitars, gentile piano keys and soothing strings to the mix, establishing an unexpectedly classical and groovy blend. It all adds up to one impressive EP, especially since Essential-i has been in silence for the past 2 years.

Essential-i has done great things after all.

Flow State LP Mix By Kat La Kat

A House Music DJ/Producer from South Africa. Member of Nativeroots and Deeptone Recordings.

Despite becoming a household name in his early twenties, Essential-I has always maintained a humble and down to earth approach throughout his career. One of the first youngstars to break through to international acclaim on the strength of his production alone, Essential-I has since gone on to establish his own imprint, Deeptone Recordings and take the label right to the forefront of dance music. 

As a producer and part of Nativeroots, Essential-I has amassed an impressive collection of releases on the prestigious label GOGO Music. Essential-I has worked with artists as diverse as Samantha Faison, Pap Spencer, and more. But it is his genuine and unreserved love for the scene and bringing through new talent that has given Essential-I the longevity to remain at his best for so long.
