Finally ! The first compilation of the Parisian label is out ! No less than 10 tracks for this release, with nearly 6 exclusive tracks including featuring between Darius & FKJ, Cezaire & Dabeull or Crayon and Jordan Lee, but also the « classics » from well known Kartell and Zimmer.
 
« .Wave » is more than a compilation, it’s also a story, a party !
 
The story of a bunch of friends which decide, when they want to gather on a same compilation most of the tracks already known from the fans, to come back in the studio and compose new tracks.
 
The result ? “Point Wave” which gather a sophisticated blend of house, nu-soul, at borders of Hip Hop and funk, French Touch as a background, epic, which will delight purists.

Truth be told, the Deadbeats aren't much to write home about. Their sample-and-cycle pseudo downtempo comes across as a "chilled" take on Armand Van Helden's _Sampleslaya_ That is, the more obnoxious bits of hip hop looped ad nauseum. "Got It Goin' On" fits this mold well, it's not terribly good, not terribly interesting, and forgotten very quickly. That is, except for the Aim mix, which is an absolute corker. It manages to be groovy, sexy, uplifting and poppy, without sounding cheesy or contrived. The female vox are processed just right and sends shivers down one's spine. A similar effect turns the formally-obnoxious male rap into a blissful counterpart. The instrumental part of the track could stand quite well on its own, but blends the whole song into a perfect bit of downtempo pop. When compared to the uninspiring original, it is truly amazing just how much funk, soul and emotion is present in the Aim mix. Definitely on my list of top ten chillout tracks.
