TRACKLIST A1. Heat Makes Sense A2. Switch feat. Stimulus & Malik Work B1. Marino feat. Big $exy B2. Do You Love Me? (The Martinez Brothers Edit) INFO With previous releases appearing on labels as diverse as Soul Clap, Letâ„¢s Play House, Ghostly International and Kompakt, the producer, DJ and trumpeter is perhaps best known for being one half of No Regular Play who have recorded LPâ„¢s and EPâ„¢s for Wolf & Lamb, Crew Love, and Letâ„¢s Play House. Never one to be confined to one genre, Greg takes influence from Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop and underground house to form a unique sound primed for discerning dance floors. Taylor Bense is an in-house composer and producer at the highly regarded Hyperballad Studios in Brooklyn, where he works and records a wide spectrum of music for everything from high end commercial work to EPâ„¢s for Wolf + Lamb and Soul Clap Records. The entire EP was recorded and produced at Hyperballad Studios over the past few years. Title track Heat Make Sense wears its Prince inspiration on its sleeve with a hooky whistled tune, crunchy live bass fills and punchy, raw beats. Next up we have Switch which features Brooklyn MCâ„¢s Stimulus and Malik Work on vocal duties and Gregâ„¢s own trumpet adding top lines to the deep pads and rolling groove. Marino takes us back to golden era jacking Chicago house of the 00â„¢s but with Gregâ„¢s trumpet flourishes bringing a live, jazzy energy to the track. Fellow NYC mainstay Big $exy provides his trademark deep baritone vocal to give a little hip house flavour. Closing out the EP we have NYCâ„¢s Martinez Brothers providing an uptempo minimal edit of Do You Love Me, a track from Gregâ„¢s previous Freerange EP. The MBâ„¢s keep things rolling and stripped back for maximum club impact creating a useful DJ tool whilst allowing Gregâ„¢s musical and vocal parts to shine.
