Yore returns with the 3rd release on the Yore Limited series. 300 limited copies in green transparent vinyl. A beauty musically and for the eye. Orlando B. favours the kind of funky and raw-sounding techno that flourished during the late-’90s and early-’00s and so naturally invests his maiden voyage on the Yore imprint with the same kind of classic soul that renders that earlier era’s sound so appealing. ” Beneath the Surface ep ” largely focuses on warm house grooves. “A Feeling” dishes out eight minutes of classic deep house that’s also as funky as hell. A subtle Latin percussion vibe sneaks in at the beginning but quickly enough the tune rolls out a warm house strut that dominates thereafter; piano sprinkles, lush strings, and a crisp, hi-hat-spun groove give the tune added style and flair, as does the insistence of the titular vocal sample. “Esoteric” digs into a steamy, bass-driven house beat that’s both raw and funky, then slathers it with a synth solo that squeals with delight, while “New York Tale” smoothens its techno core with warm chords and delicious house swing. “MJ12″ is the coolest and most techy cut on this diverse four cut ep. Orlando B. sprinkling billowing dub chords and a spoken voice sample over a rock-solid tech-house base that will go straight under your skin, when it hits you on the dancefloor.

Fresh Meat / Berlin Mitte Ins: “Good stuff !”

DE-BUG: “In grünem Vinyl kommt diese sehr säuselnd warme Houseplatte, die einen zurecht in nahezu allem an die Zeiten erinnert, als US-House irgendwie noch wie ein Soulzuckerguss aus dem All rüberkam. Gelegentlich auch mal sehr langsam, sind die Tracks immer auf festem analogen Untergrund gebaut, haben im Sound aber eine absolut überzeugende Frische und nähren vor allem die Seele all jener, die von einem Track vor allem Musik erwarten und sich gerne und zurecht in den smarten Sweeps der Synths und dem warmen Plockern der Basslines in ihren Detroitträumen von endlosem Futurismus wohlfühlen. Extrem schöne Platte. ”

Michael DJ Broadcast NL: “Nice tracks, warm, and useful in lot's of situations and moments. ”

philip sherburne: “It's nice, though i think it gets limited by its own traditionalism. My fave cuts are A1 and B2; I quite like the dirty chords of the latter.”

Ryan Keeling Resident Advisor: “Nice enough deep house vibes. ”
