Harvest Time

Italian DJ and producer Tommaso Giovannoni serves up a groovy #minimal house EP accompanied by slick remixes from Etzu Mahkayah (a current favorite) and Xavier. Each of these longform tracks provides a nice hypnotic twist on the classic #rominimal or #microhouse sound. A very polished and complete-feeling release. Most tracks situated in the 125-130bpm range.

TRY 4, 6, 1

1. (9:45) Noir, slow-morphing breaks-focused electronic track with neat gurgle effects
2. (10:44) Nice bouncy track with tech house sensibilities and a swirling background of glitchy samples and chopped up indistinguishable vocals
3. (12:04) Galloping beat with hand drums and synthesizer wanderings. Sparse breakdowns lend a mysterious vibe
4. (7:08) Slick electro synthesizer and extended buildups gives this track a retro, almost trance or progressive house vibe. It's not pure club energy though--lush breakdowns provide a nice respite
5. (8:08) Classic rominimal sound with a thicc groovy baseline and a splashy, glitchy backdrop
6. (6:44) Densely-packed track with layers of samples (vocals and instrumental), slow-evolving swells and a chunky beat
