        TONIGHT!!!!

        Elon featuring Maceo Plex - Bummalo EP



        It is rare that I Voice gets fired up about a label enough to give them consistent coverage, there are simply too many deserving imprints to warrant any special treatment for a chosen few. New York City's ReSolute, however, bucks that trend with reviews of the label's first two releases.

        The second release, "Bummalo" is by label founder Elon and the incandescent Maceo Plex, together they provide another solid piece of funky house music for a label that is fast becoming one of note.

        The title track is energetic, spunky, and pretty much guaranteed to be one of the big summer time hits. It's also a bit generic in some ways, falling in to the nebulous funky house category that used to be associated with those cheesy Defected compilations complete with half-naked girl cover art but since that genre has been mostly overrun by the electro house mafia tracks like "Bummalo" find their way creeping back in to the underground. Fortunately that side of the world has also been infested - with bleeps, bloops, and other soulless bullshit - making this track sound crisp and fresh despite the obvious vintage influences.

        "Chordate" is much more interesting than the title track with gentle late night deep and tech house influences. It lends itself to a moodiness that dominates the grooves and the melodies on top are clean and wonderful.

        The real winner on here is on the B-side, titled "Floating Faces". This is a midtempo shuffler in the vein of the Art Department and Wolf+Lambs of the world. Deep, jazzy grooves give it a slight downtempo edge while the dreamy vocals provide an arresting quality that allows listeners to truly get lost in the musical sophistication here, something so often lacking from dance floor cuts. Here musical possibilities are brought front and center for a track that provides a window in to the current New York dance music scene. As a digital bonus, the label provides a vocal edit of "Bummalo", which does give it a little extra edge and vitality lacking on the original. The question here is mostly whether this version was truly necessary and the answer is probably no.
