David Alvarado, the LA based house veteran, makes a welcome return to the music scene this month with a remix of Kris Wadsworth’s “Direct”. Alvarado has been a long time associate of NRK Music, and released the ultra deep mini album, “Transiguration” on the label back in 2004.
David has been a consistent favourite on the house scene since his early productions for Strictly Rhythm, Groove On, Yoshi Toshi and Ovum in the 90s, as well as productions for legendary labels such as Peacefrog, Guidance and Plastic City. Recent years has seen David taking a back seat from the wheels of music production, but it is hoped that his remix here for NRK will spark the flames of musicality for more productions to come out over the next year.
His remix of Kris Wadsworth’s “Direct” is in classic Alvarado style, heavy tribal beats, dubby reverberations, trippy deepness, and dense and engaging production. His remix is already picking up support from the likes of Dixon,Rocky (X-Press 2), Paul Woolford and Jay Tripwire.
Wadsworth’s new EP comprises two tracks, “Direct” and “Full Body”, both treading similar paths of stripped back, raw house tracks. Bleepy yet with plenty of deepness, it’s refreshing to see a producer out there not following suit, but producing an individual sound. Certainly these tracks are intended for those who like their house deeper than the black hole!
The package is completed by a remix from NRK’s Nick Harris, who neatly moulds “Full Body” into a more club firendlier version, utilizing some of the original’s chords and bleeps and turning out a solid, hypnotic rework.
Kris Wadsworth “Direct”/”Full Body” is released on 7th December as a digital EP, with the vinyl release concentrating on Alvarado’s remix of “Direct” and the original Wadsworth version.
