Rhythm II Rhythm

Chicago - 1992. Ray Barney's Dance Mania imprint has already been making it's presence felt on the streets since way back in 1985 with a slew of releases from luminaries such as Lil Louis, DJ Pierre, Vincent Floyd, Armando and many more. Step in Parris Mitchell, under his Rhythm II Rhythm alias with a 12'' of pure deepness for the label, oddly this the only one Parris released using this particular name. ''A touch of jazz'' is a languid, soulful roller that stands out amongst the more tougher edged, frenetic releases on Dance Mania. This is some late night, smoothed out business across 4 alternate mixes. It's all uptempo snapping drums, shifting jazzy keys and that ridiculously catchy bassline, pure deep house basically.

This is the first time ''A touch of jazz'' has ever been reissued in full, just as it was originally released in 1992, complete with original Dance Mania label artwork.
