Description
A must-listen release from Italian producer Manuold, who has previously released on Madhouse Records and House Puff! Led by a Kerri Chandler-esque A1, all five tracks showcase a tough, straight-ahead deep house sound!
Stylish musician Manuold (born Emmanuele Macagnone) makes his GLBDOM debut. This collection showcases the sophisticated deep house sound that has earned him acclaim on House Puff and Madhouse Records since his debut in 2017.
The opening track, "Jersey," features a bouncy synth bassline, garage-house-style drums, and gospel-inspired vocal samples. It unfolds with a retro-futuristic sound reminiscent of Kerri Chandler. "Hot & Crunchy" adds a jazzy touch, while "Zanzibar" explores a fusion of deep house and tech house.
On the flip side, "Night Long" is a powerful track that adds an Italian touch to New Jersey-style deep house. "In The Clouds" draws on Italo house influences while retaining the essence of dreamy deep house.
A must-have for deep house fans, harmonizing classic elements with a modern sensibility.

Smart dresser and dedicated beard groomer Manuold - real name Emmanuele Macagnone - has notched up some excellent releases since making his bow in 2017, including admired EPs on House Puff and Madhouse Records. Here he brings his classy brand of deep house to GLDOM for the first time. With its squelchy synth-bass, loose-limbed garage-house drums, gospel vocal samples and warm pads, opener 'Jersey' sounds like a long-lost Kerri Chandler gem. He continues the retro-futurist theme on the low-slung and jazzy 'Hot & Crunchy', before doffing a cap to deep house/tech-house fusion on the Tenaglia-influenced 'Zanzibar'. Over on the flip, 'Night Long' is a chunky slab of 21st century New Jersey deep house with an Italian twist, while 'In The Clouds' sees him successfully lean into his Italo-house influences while retaining a dreamy and chunky deep house flex.
