Smallpeople - Lowrider Anarchy - Smallville Records

It's been a while since Smallpeople last appeared on Hamburg's celebrated Smallville imprint. Amazingly, this is their first release on the imprint for three years. Happily, they appear to have retained their famed sense of atmosphere, dropping three winding deep house gems that variously soothe and seduce the senses. The expansive, melody-rich "Blissful Limbo" sets the tone via sinewy strings, tactile grooves and yearning vocal samples, before "Lowrider Anarchy" goes charging off towards the dancefloor via rugged bottom end and smooth melodies. They aptly round things off with "Lazy Lama Legend", the deep house equivalent of wrapping yourself in a duvet and sipping on a fine single malt whisky.
