Making his debut on Libero this October is Solid Grooves resident and Distance Music frontman, Bassel Darwish. He has built up a solid reputation for high-quality releases on some of the industry’s top labels over the last few years, so we are delighted to add him to our release catalogue. ‘This Is What We Do’ features an original single from Bassel, along with remixes from frontmen Mike Morrisey & Luke welsh and Francesco Squillante.

The Original Mix comes in hot with uptempo energy and swaying rhythm. Bright drums and a huge sub-bass coast along in a wave-like fashion with crisp percussion and hats piercing their way through the main beef of the track. Vocal-driven breakdowns steal your attention with a captivating hook and subtle undertones before punching you back into the beat.

Label bosses Mike Morrisey and Luke Welsh follow up with their spin on the track. Pumping more zip and groove into the original concept with longer buildups and atmospheric, energetic drops. A low-slung, driving bassline paired with uptempo, rolling percussion make it a perfect peak-time driver. About as good of an example of the Libero Sound as you’ll get from the label chieftains.

Squaring things off, Francesco Squillante applies a gritty tone to his mix. A heavy, in your face bassline carries the track and is supplemented by quirky, offbeat samples as well as some additional creative vocal work. A solid display of ‘same but different’ at play here; the sign of a very intelligent, experienced producer.

Bassel Darwish - This Is What We Do EP (inc. Mike Morrisey & Luke welsh and Francesco Squillante remixes) is proudly presented by Libero Records.

Manchester-based imprint Libero Records is quickly becoming a staple in the diet of many underground tech-house appreciators. With a stripped-back approach and rhythmic grooves teeming throughout their already blossoming catalogue of releases, it’s easy to see why the label’s exposure is growing at an exponential rate. 

Label frontmen Mike Morrisey, Luke Welsh and Dan Costello lead the march in pushing the Libero Sound to the masses.

Building around a focus on percussive, minimalist tech-house inspired by concepts like the infamous Music On and artists like Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, Paco Osuna and many more; Libero’s ethos is centred around the rolling soul of underground dance music. Through the label, as well as regular events and a frequent podcast series, they consistently broadcast their simple yet effective Libero Sound ideology to the farthest corners of the scene.
