Fresh off a run of vinyl releases supported by legends of the scene like Gerd Janson, Todd Edwards, Move D and DJ Sprinkles, Skylax Records are mighty proud to present Sweden¡Çs Lukas Lyrestam for our 150th release.
¡ÈWhen 2 Bodies Become 1¡É treads a fine line between raucous deep-house, balearic blues and straight-up sexy music. The opener ¡ÈRaw Loop¡É channels classic Pepe Braddock vibes while ¡ÈMoving Day¡É sounds like it could¡Çve come from the sonic experiments of a certain 90s house producer who loves to play keyboards. Lukas is a musician and singer first, which really shows on the flip side of the record – something which Mano Le Tough & Jimpster were very happy to support on a recent release for Clouded House.¡ÈStrange Beast¡É marries off-kilter chorus-kissed guitar riffs with a driving four-to-the floor arrangement while ¡È2 Bodies Become 1¡É takes a step further away from house music to combine vintage new-order textures and shuffling deep-house. Lukas also builds digital synthesizers in his spare time, something which must¡Çve come in handy for ¡ÈBike Ride With U¡É an italo-banger closing out the record and sporting a very rubbery bassline. We are super happy to add yet another great house 12-inch to our catalogue and remember, stay underground, it pays!
