Various Artists
Praterei 006
Discerning Austrian label and party of the same name, Praterei, kick off 2013 with their sixth vinyl release, this time a various artists EP leaning on the well respected likes of Chicago Skyway, Ethyl, 7 Citizens and Snuff Crew. Mysterious jack lovers Snuff Crew take the lead with an unsurprisingly old school flavored slice of house. Raw and unpolished, classic hi hats and sturdy kicks set the tone beneath colorful stabs and increasingly wild percussion: it's simple and most effective. Praterei co-owner 7 Citizens s 'Perse' is darker and deeper, a nagging hook snakes about menacingly as a starry night sky of melodies reveals itself above. Esteemed Chi Town man Chicago Skyway's track 'Shy Girl' is anything but, instead it's a gauzy and derelict house track with scattered drum hits caked in dust and grime. Finally, secretsundaze man Ethyl closes out a dark and delicious EP with a feels-like-you're-floating, dubby house track that has hits to die for, skating about beneath lush and melancholic chords.
