The always on point Definition:Music is back with another killer house EP, this time from Frag Maddin, the Hamburg man who has impressed with previous releases on labels like Area Remote and Heinz Music.
With a background that includes drumming in a punk rock band and producing hip-hop, this young and hyperactive talent has plenty of real skills that truly show in his four new cuts.

Up first is One Hand, a mid tempo deep house effort with dark filtered vocals sounding like your self conscious as they mutter here and there. Woody drums and rough percussion drive things along and the vibe is a curious, inviting and intimate one. ‘Brochette’ is a lush and even deeper number with golden chords, rough-cut drums blissed out melodies that speak to a beach party sensibility.

Next up, Red Eye is another nicely analogue and textured house jam that glides along on crisp and clean hi hats, with a buried deep bassline bring the cool and effortless funk. Last track Gonna Be is a nice elastic construction with more humid pads, nicely live sounding percussion work and well-treated vocals all fusing together into an easy to love house jam. This is a fresh, engaging EP that confirms both Definition:Music and Frag Maddin to be fine house exponents.
