This could well be the release that turns Israeli DJ/producer Dasco into a household name within the deep house community. It's certainly her most high profile release yet thanks to its association with Mad Mats and Tooli's fine Local Talk label. There are two variations of title track "African Power": her percussive, positive and musically rich original mix, which brilliantly fuses elements of deep house, Afro-house and jazz and boasts rather lovely trumpet solos, and a dreamier, beefier Trinidadian Deep take that's every bit as summery. "Keep Movin'" is even more percussive, dreamy and spacey, while Anthony Nicholson's tasty "Mediterranian" rework effortlessly joins the dots between Latin house and deep nu-disco.
