The next release on Libero comes from label owners and frontmen Mike Morrisey and Luke Welsh. After a year jam-packed full of support from the biggest names in the scene, the pair brings their aptly titled ‘Libero Sound’ EP to the table with resolute confidence in it exhibiting exactly what it says on the tin. Between them, they’ve both championed number 1 spot releases on Beatport and have released on some of the most on-trend, underground minimal/deep tech labels around, and it’s clear to see why with this four-track offering that also includes a remix from the renowned Stefano Crabuzza.

Opening the release, the title track sets the pace with its rolling groove. Stripped back, terrace-style vibes from the offset with a heavy focus on the accentuated percussive elements. The flow is kept energetic by constant injections of offbeat movement and rhythm. Subtle vocal chops give it an element of catchiness and decorate what is a well-rounded vibe builder.

Next in line is ‘Belted Down’, another terrace-style deep tech treat with a punchier persona. It runs the line of a more tribal-influenced track with hints of nostalgic rave influence. Heavily set low-end frequencies rumble throughout, complimenting the big, atmospheric transitions and hard-hitting drops.

The penultimate track, ‘Deep Mate’ has a bumpier feel to it. Although it is slightly more energetically charged, there is still a major emphasis on the groove and in particular the percussion. A track with a bit of a wider swing, containing some acid-infused low-bit sampling and another staunch bass factor. Definitely a strong choice for the peak hours of the party!

Closing out the release is Stefano Crabuzza’s remix of ‘Deep Mate’. Keeping much of the original fire burning but taking down the pace and stripping it back to meet the flavour of the two opening tracks. Sill carrying a bit of bump, but focusing more on the roll and offbeat flare.

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.
