Proper Heat
"Chapter One"
Proper Heat is an exquisite alliance of three musicians deeply mad about jazz, house, disco and electronics.
After a long wait, their lovingly crafted debut LP arrives on Nang this summer, and it's called 'Chapter One.'
After three extremely well received EPs on Nang, Karolis Ramoška, Martin Virgin and Saxtone return all horns blazing. Karolis is the exceptional voice of the trio, Saxtone plays saxophone and Martin is the disco head. Martin is the musical and organizational backbone which has seen them onwards and outwards from their Lithuanian base to the wider (and greatly appreciative) world. Saxtone has been following the trails of music with a saxophone in his hands from early childhood. All the way from jazz improvisations to contemporary dance music – an all-round and universal musician, instrumentalist and producer. At the moment Saxtone is enjoying working at the studio, making house music, where various musical influences and experiences of his life can be felt.
As ever Laid-back, accessible disco house is the order of the day and this album is filled to the brim. If it's cool bar grooves with slick vocals you're looking for then tracks such as recent single "Just A Little Bit", "Higher" and "The Move" will definitely float your boat. For those dancefloor moments there is a brace of finely produced down-tempo disco house in the form of tracks like "I Can", "Smooth Choice", "Lucky I Am" and the Sax-tastic "Take Control".
This album keeps things melodic and accessible but also mixes in some finely crated songs, take the forlorn "No You In Tomorrow" , the soaring chorus of "In Your Eyes" or the Balearic grooves of "This World". Overall an exquisite listening experience and an album we are really glad to be putting out at Nang. Ah one more thing… Did we mention the gold suits? Martin Fry eat your heart out.
We hope you enjoy as much as we do.
