Inspired by a dreamy sabbatical in Western Kenya, ‘Warthog’ is a slice of lush organic house oozing with classy restraint. This sleeper hit is finally getting its due in the limelight after a limited run of dubplates sold like butter in 2013 - with two heavy-weight remixes from Finnish producer-legend Jori Hulkkonen and rising deep house star Saine. Driving, balearic and pleasantly euphoric the record is rounded off by a bumping 4/4 groove featuring none other than Tapani Rinne on bass clarinet. COM-007 is a vinyl-only release, limited to 200 copies worldwide.
