Detroit veteran Delano Smith returns on his Mixmode imprint for more of his singular style of dubby bass-driven house, with a smattering of innate soulfulness. Three sturdy tracks are featured on the Beneath EP: from the haunting back room dub of ‘This Music Here’ which is absolutely geared for those heads-down moments, and more basement vibes abound as heard on the hypnotic locomotive stomp of ‘The Gutter’, while over on the flip things end on a slightly more optimistic note with the swing-fuelled deepness of ‘Euphoric’.
