FRANCIS HARRIS Vinilo y CD

Review: ** REPRESS ALERT ** Back in 2012, New York deep house hero Francis Harris released his critically acclaimed debut album on Scissor & Thread - the now defunct label he ran with French DJ Anthony Collins and Shawn Schwartz of Halcyon Records. A much sought after LP since its limited release, the reissue of this evocative sonic journey will no doubt be to the joy of many collectors with this repress. A requiem to his late father, it is a deeply personal journey with an organic and soulful feel throughout featuring a variety of traditional and classical sonic elements over its deep house framework. From blissed out armchair drifters like "Plays I Play" or "Pensum", to more upbeat expressions in deepness as heard on the gorgeous "Lostfound" featuring Danish singer Gry's sensual vocals or the bittersweet groove of "Close Air". This truly is Harris' masterpiece.
