New Mahogani Music twelve inch just in time to fill those stockings! Randolph is a bass player from Detroit, and as well as having two albums out on Still Music has featured on Jazzanova's "Funkhaus Studio Sessions". He has released on Still, Sonar Kollevtiv, KMS and Planet E. Here's he's joined by two of deep house's finest ambassaders, Charles Webster and Dez Andres, for a fresh EP of beatdown soul and bumpety house music for Moodymann's iconic label. "Not Gonna Let" kicks things off, remixed by Charles Webster. Murky, thick and heady, this is eyes-down, introspective soul music with just enough umph for slow, sexy dancefloors. Randolph hasn't creditted any extra vocalists on the 12", so we can only assume that it's him giving us these powerful, yearning passages. The OG puts Randolph's skilled bass work (along with his vocals) into focus. The funky, syncopated B-line complimeting the steady beatdown drums perfectly as Randolph's vocal smoothly slots in. On the flip, Andres gets to work on the track - turning out one of his stylishly executed, bumping slow house jams - fresh outta the MPC baby! Finally, short interlude / outro, "Peace" concludes with slick licks and soulful vocals jamming it out in a call and response style. No drums, just pure licks and vocals! Excellent stuff! More historic music from the motor city. Don't sleep.
