It’s been a long time since we didn’t have a release from Mr Lemos the genius Greek producer that, along with Kreon, have been talked by everyone during last year. Na Funky Kotes Ep has been released by Quantized Music,a new independent label from Athens “aiming to release high quality modern electronic dance music”. So, on their 3rd release George Lemos shows up to launch two tremendous tracks full of quality and sophisticated rhythms. It all starts with the original mix of “Na Funky Kotes”, following the normal standards of this producer, with lots of live bass grooves , some jazz imprints (in this case, the clarinet) and really good breaks followed by the natural pumpy recycling of the track. This is something that you’ll full understand only if you have a great soundsystem because the multi-layered bassline demands it, it has such an incredible kick and a weird fascinating melodic cut that could only be created by this amazing guy. “Some Groove” runs through more calm strains but it doesn’t forget the funky bleeps and the jazzy loops creating, again, an extreme groovy feeling. The Ep ends with a remix from Swiss producer David Keno. On his version of “Na Funky Kotes” he approaches a more minimal way of doing things, maintaining the jazz melodic moments of the first, making them more subliminal, not as enthusiast, but more directed to club night djaing. Both versions are extremely well producer and are strongly supported by minimaland team. “We couldn’t expect anything less”!
