Artist: Densmore & Cort
Release Title: Washington Park EP
Label: Fresh Meat (FMR37)
Available Now From: Beatport
Track list (click title for audio preview):
1. Let’s Please This Sun
2. (re)
3. Cream (Remastered)
4. Cream (Densmore Remix)
Densmore & Cort’s Washington Park EP is easily the most gorgeously deep and atmospheric music Fresh Meat has released this year. The Troy, New York duo’s slow thick house productions seep lush pleasures, poetics and seduction.
In the spirit of Jackie’s “Sun, Sun, Sun” the project opens with “Let’s Please This Sun”, a beautiful tribute to the central body of our solar system. Pads, evocative strings, resonate drones, and other synths exalt the light and heat which emanate from this soft elegant track.
“(re)”, a speculative slow groove, is propelled by emotional outbursts, lovely keys, and Densmore & Cort’s provocative drum programming. The drums and key stabs heat up through the last half of the track transforming the music’s abstract structure into a subtle dance floor grinder.
“Cream” with its vibraphones and ultra sweet vibe was the original Densmore & Cort track picked up by Fresh Meat and was released on the mix album and compilation When Bad People Cook Good Food Volume 2 earlier this year. As a Beatport exclusive, we present Densmore’s (George Washburn’s) slightly thickened-up retouch. With new voices and programming, the remix is more percussive and dance floor but retains all the music and atmosphere of the original.
The sun is pleased.
Selected Feedback:
Sleazy McQueen - Densmore has been making irregular tech house marked by not-so-common rhythms and I'm loving it like a beautiful bastard child!
Scope – That’s a really nice release.. Very different from the usual FM fare, but very much welcome! I like the mix of disco vibes with the deep house atmospherics. Lovely production!
Jim Rivers - Loving the deepness. Let’s Please This Sun is so lush!
MANIK - Nice work guys. My man Densmore know what’s up...his remix of Cream is my pick. These guys are represetin’ NY properly.
Brett Johnson - Some really lush bizness here. I like.
Chloe Harris - Amazing. Let's Please is stunning. The whole EP is very good.
Stuart Patterson - Great EP of deep shit…going for Let's Please This Sun and (re).
Charles Webster - 'Let's Please...' is nice deepness. I could have done without the washed over saxxy ambient stuff but I like the vibe of the chords etc. Thanks.
Kate Simko - Nice, deep + dubby sound! Great artwork too!
Alland Byallo - Cream and the Densmore remix are dope!
Nick Warren - Cream remastered is the one for me.
Diz - Mid-tempo deepness! Definitely need more of this in the set. Respect.
Nick Harris - Wow, super deep stuff here, nice to see Fresh Meat going its own path with some varied releases of late. The Densmore mix just edges it here.
Bearweasel - Fresh!
Nico De Ceglia - Deeeep and quality.
