St. Petersburg talent Ivan Latyshev drops a killer EP on the ever dependable Dessous Recordings.
Ivan has been making waves over the past couple of years with his distinctive brand of deep, groove heavy house music on labels such as What’s in the Box, Street King and Spaghetti Monster - but this To My Youth EP sees the young Russian step up to another level.
The title track shows a deep affiliation for classic house vibes, mixed with some jazzy flourishes and swung grooves. The sense of euphoria is tangible, and the spoken word vocals add a level of house mysticism that will be always welcome on deeper leaning dance-floors.
'Can’t Go Away' goes a shade deeper still, bringing layers of delay and reverb to the track that help shape a true slow burner.
,Old Ages’ also highlights Ivan’s love of jazz rhythms and sounds, building from a live drum break into a rolling deep house monster - it’s infectious stuff and suggests Ivan Latyshev is going to be name to watch in the next months and years.
