Following the more house & techno focused Spring Club Collection, The Visionquest dream team return with the sun-dappled Summer ‘Beach Collection’, starring Maceo Plex, Tale Of Us and Pillow Talk.

Part II of the Spring Summer Collection features a fresh selection of summer jams – a three-tiered melting pot of hot talent, dishing out a warm mix of sun drenched house steeped in soul, both dusky and bright, with an 80’s disco infusion. This next installment is testament to the ever-changing moods and winds across Visionquest sonic footprint. It sounds like the breeze and the heat of a memorable summer romance, soul music for the feet.

House maestro Maceo Plex steps up first with the bittersweet summer anthem ‘Falling’, the dreamy vocal drifts into the uplifting melody, funky guitar licks and subtle undercurrents of softly jackin’ beats build into psychedelic waves of hooky synths. Maceo Plex’s recent superb singles and Life Index album on Crosstown Rebels is a contender for album of the year.

Hot on the heels of the moody, epic ‘Dark Song EP’, Tale Of Us are back representing Visionquest with the deep melancholy of ‘Winds Of Change’. Eerie atmospheres unfold with gently broken beats, minor key bass notes and a mysterious vocal cut that penetrates the soul with its yearning clarity.

Sammy D aka Pillow Talk has been a fixture on the San Francisco house and techno scene for the past 12 years, having released as Justin Martin & Sammy D on luminary labels such as Derrick Carter’s Classic Records, Ben Watt's Buzzin'Fly and Claude Von Stroke's Dirtybird. Sammy's new project Pillow Talk (alongside production partners Michael Tello and Ryan

Williams) is straight up soul dance music. Influenced by the great RnB singers of the 50s and 60s, Sammy’s velvet vocals displayed here in the majestic ‘Love Makes Parks’ wash over the laid-back, swinging groove and the message is clear; It’s the Visionquest summer of Love.

Third and final track of the stellar EP, 'Wish I Didn't Miss You' is the perfect round-up to finish everything off. An elegant female vocal hook met with a selection chord progressions, both guitar and piano pave the way for a big drop with basic elements, but very effective at that.

'Frankie Meets Pauline' is this Summer's classic party anthem, a throwback to Felix's Chicago House roots, the cheeky vocal samples in this track raise as many rye smiles as they do pumping fist, so get dancin'! 

Felix commented, "Frankie Meets Pauline is a mashup production I did dedicated 2 thee scene I grew up in, in Chicago listening to Thee likes of Frankie Knuckles, Farley Jackmaster Funk and Ron Hardy...This sound 2 me caught thee essence of Chicago in the 80's, resonating and pounding, sweat-drippin walls, bass beatin' clubs like the Warehouse and The Music Box.
