a long time ago i found this cd called "lights out - the deepsounds of sweden" and i hadn't heard of this compo but there was a few artists on that i liked. i was over the moon about finding something like this that rounded up some nice swedish deephouse and it featured tracks by kristoffer marchi & ronin (aka jonathan axelsson).
finding information on this cd at first was not easy but i pieced together that it was a compilation on the night lights label that was started up in 2000. it released a few records and another compilation with the aid of corona beer and then it was defunct.
there are a few track which i really like but the ones that i liked the most was axelsson's funky number "romantic yearnings", pete gust's "the cassisman" and this track by an lesser known producer by the name of pedro tranquilo.
it's the closing track on the compilation and the one of the few working a breakbeat. normally the combination deeper house and breakbeats is called broken beat but i don't know if i would call it that. the break is too straightforward for the track but it also switches the dynamics instead of the four on the floor.
it gives off a much playful vibe with the vibes, electric piano, guitar & congas bouncing off it. it was the lovely musical content that made love this direct but then the break hits halfway in. the bass along with electric piano sent serious shivers down my spine in all the right ways.
