PRESENCE aka CHARLES WEBSTER - The Strength (PRE ORDER)

A real deep house landmark returns here as a reminder of the quality of UK mainstay Charles Webster and his effortlessly cool and ageless house style. Originally from 1996 on his Remote imprint, 'The Strength' opens this newly reissued EP set with two takes, one rich with busy, light melodies, subtle minor chords and rattling basslines, the other a stripped-back, hypnotic cousin. On the flip, 'Gettin Lifted' rockets forward, a late-night cruiser that sweeps you off your feet with its bendy chords and organic percussion, while a second mix offers a blend of warped basslines and jazzy sophistication.
