Collection: [Body N Deep Holland]

Jovonn has long been a stamp of real deep house authenticity and quality, and so has his label, Body'N Deep. Here it rolls out another volume of the crucial-for-house-heads BND Project, the fifth in all, and another one packed with heavy hitters such as DJ Spinna, Atjazz, Demuir and Dirty Harry. They all serve up their own distinctive twist on US garage flavours with 'In Awe Of You' laying up lovely acoustic guitar and horns, 'Night Life' going deep and dusty, 'Many Days' bringing some soulful grooves and 'All Niter' rounding out with more characterful synths and life-affirming sounds.

Jovonn

Here's something to get the blood pumping: a deserved single release for one of the undoubted highlights of Jovonn's 2018 album "Timeless", Casio Ware collaboration "Turnin' Me Out". You'll find the pair's original version - a bouncy, slick and deep workout featuring hybrid spoken/sung vocals from Casio Ware - tucked away on side B, alongside a throbbing "Dark Dub" by Jovonn that makes great use of a dirty analogue bassline and melancholic late night chords. The headline attraction that is undoubtedly the A-side revisions by Masters at Work man Louie Vega. He delivers vocal and instrumental takes of his "Expressions NYC Mix", both of which feature looser, more swinging drums, ear-catching Rhodes solos and lashings of jazzy new synths.
