ARTIST Peter O
TITLE Game Of Life
CAT# NT127

Brighton producer Peter O returns to Nordic Trax with an emotional six-track ep of sparkling deep house music. Following the recent loss of his mother the talented producer poured that energy into his craft, and the result is an uplifting and life-affirming collection of modern house music.

This is Peter O’s third release on NT, following along from Waste Not (NT119, 2022) and Colours (NT078, 2014). The Brighton producer empties the tank for this one, taking the listener on a journey with a range of influences: from afro house on Afterlife, to broken beat on The Fall, and classic 90s-inspired deep house with Legend Sound and Happiness.

House music and its forefather disco is drenched in melancholy, and this ep continues the tradition with heavy chords and emotional string arrangements that can move you – while you think AND feel. You’ve got to be down to see the light, put one foot in front of the other and keep it moving forward. Music is indeed the answer, let it be your guide in this Game Of Life.

Peter O’s label debut in 2014 is one of our favourite releases of the last decade. Mixmag called it “classic deep house, perfect for those beach house moments” and the release found widespread dj support from the likes of Maya Jane Coles, Catz ‘N Dogz, Martin Landsky, Waifs + Strays, Mark Farina & Joyce Muniz to name a few. On his second release Peter delivered a delightful ep for fans of DIY, Nuphonic and Paper Recordings, which garnered immediate support from Harri, Fish Go Deep, Nick Holder, Inland Knights, Finest Wear, Monty Luke, Nick V and Sandro Bianchi among others. From the stripped-back vibes of the title track, to the feel good vocal hook of The Last Days, the EP has a nostalgic feel without being overly sentimental. Soulful, forward-thinking dance music with a nod to the past.

A veteran of London’s clubs and pirate radio, Peter now teaches music technology while continuing to produce and deejay. His discography includes work on Tronicsole, Nightbird Music, De La Casa, Disclosure Project Recordings, Nordic Trax and he’s collaborated with the likes of Monophunk, Asadinho, Alex Barck, Kris Wadsworth and J-Felix among others. His early work caught the attention of some notable music tastemakers including M.A.N.D.Y., Charles Webster, Lucidflow and Q Burns.
