After a long hiatus from his debut ep release Modern Traditions in 2013, Moraes went to the lab to create a deep organic house album rooted in native rhythms and grooves. Earth kicks off the story with a feature from our own man or words, OVEOUS being forgiveness for our continued treatment of our source of life while moving on to Fingers, a hypnotic nodder with fingerlings courtesy of master tickler Jesse Gannon. Higher continues our journey with harmonica deepness via Victor Lopez. Conqueror gives nod to Lil Louis’ classic conversations in its sax appeal, One Shot the first single features and announces the return of Capitol A’s blessing on another Yoruba release. In Love Again, a sweet offering with the lovely voice of Nadirah Shakoor, guaranteed to melt the soul. No Escaping lends its heart with newcomer Aroop Roy’s tone to set the mood. Watch out for him! We end with the title song which complete out journey with its infectious melody and mood to get lost into. In short Rafaels, vision of deep house is clear and focused. Njoy!
