In the last few years we've seen French DJ and producer Laroye delivering the goods time after time on respected labels such as Atjazz Recordings, Compost, Makin Moves and Foliage. His latest release on Local Talk has been getting big support picking up plays on Radio 1, 6Music, Worldwide FM as well as spins from Natasha Diggs, Gilles Peterson, Craig Charles, Louie Vega, Honey Dijon to name a few. Freerange is proud to welcome him back for the follow up to 2020's release 'Be The Change', presenting you with a killer 4 track EP entitled 'First Sight'.On 'Uku Dance', a bass-heavy groove is punctuated with vocal chops and deep Rhodes part which adds a moody, late night touch. Just the kind of soulful, dubby, afro track that will get the house dancers throwing down like their lives depended on it! Up next we have the Percussive Dub mix of 'Uku Dance', in which Laroye strips things back to the bare bones making for a serious percussion tool work out to spice up your sets. Leading the charge on Side B, Laroye is joined by influential Detroit artist, DJ, producer and vocalist Javonntte, who has written and recorded a brilliant vocal for the title track. Laroye's fat beats, jazzy chords and soulful touch make the perfect production for Javonntte's vocals. Closing out the release you'll find an instrumental version of 'First Sight'.Tracklisting:
