From the coziest speakeasy bars to the tastiest late night sandwich counters, New York City is full of delightful secrets that reward those lucky enough to find them. One of Brooklyn’s best kept secrets is Kyle Louis (fka KLM), a talented yet unassuming veteran of the underground house scene who now makes his debut with the Run It Back EP. The third Fortune Signal label release features Louis’s impeccable original productions, in which he explores a variety of emotions, rhythms, and times of the night. Classic synths, ethereal vocal chops, and subtle dubby effects provide an overall sense of cohesion throughout. The end product is a collection of fresh, contemporary compositions rooted in classic house music language, each track full of the potential to inspire transcendent dancefloor moments.

“Piano Speed Trap” is the peak time banger of the EP, powered by a pumping house groove and held together by insistent piano chords and wordlessly yearning vocal samples; the EP’s first single is tastefully restrained yet fully equipped for proper dancefloor damage. The subbiest tune of the bunch, “Run It Back” slots in perfectly during the early part of the night. It’s guided by a pulsating bass line and filtered synth stabs that underscore a mesmerizing, otherworldly lead. “Further” is a laid-back groover. The track builds energy with crisp live drum samples interplaying with atmospheric textures, and the whimsical synth melody draws inspiration from blog house-era indie bands. “Should I Go?” begins with classic garage house drums before switching to a broken beat and an echoing, hypnotic arpeggio. Louis then brings the track to its apex with an ecstatic four-to-the-floor groove accentuated by reverberant synth pads. On remix duties is Will Buck, a producer, DJ, and label boss well-known in the NYC and Miami dance music communities, with releases on such labels as Shall Not Fade, Pleasant Systems, and Whiskey Disco. Buck flips “Should I Go?” into a down and dirty house banger that’s driven by a forceful breakbeat and punctuated with a sinister rhodes melody.

Run It Back is a culmination of Kyle Louis’s years spent both in the club and the studio. Louis spent nearly a decade DJing and throwing parties in NYC, sharing stages with the likes of Tom Noble, Jacques Renault, and Juan MacLean before taking a break to refocus his energy on production. His past disco edits, beloved by the DJs fortunate enough to get their hands on them, have given him an innate understanding of dance music fundamentals. These experiences have served as the foundation for Kyle Louis’s creative voice as he ushers in this exciting new chapter of his understated but vital musical journey.
