Risk/Reward is the brainchild of New York based, London-born underground music scene veteran and Archivio Records owner Daniel Dutts. The label fuses leading contemporary artists with iconic 90s producers to create a playful yet sophisticated sound, firmly focused on creating dance floor magic!The first EP showcases rising Philadelphia talents Post Play (Sweater & John Raffaele), whose previous excursion on Small Moves became a much sought after cult classic. 'Danger' is what's commonly known by DJs as a 'sure thing', guaranteed to get the most stubborn of crowds moving. A cheeky bass groove, quirky stabs, hip hop breaks and scratched vocals, create a vibe best described as 'if DJ Premier made a track for Wiggle in the late 90s'. 'Go' blends vintage Nu Groove style NYC house with progressive and techy elements to create a unique dancefloor monster. Warping speed garage style sub bass combines with punchy stabs, lush pads, trippy synth leads and skippy, swinging drums, creating an atmospheric but driving track, that keeps you guessing til the very end. Bushwacka! #channels his Plank-era heyday to create a remix of 'Danger' that delivers multiple 'what the f#%k was that?' moments, as he takes you on a breakbeat voyage with crisp percussion, devastating low end, hypnotic ragga vocals and a didgeridoo no less! A reminder of the man's genius and genre-defining sound. 'What I Meant To Tell You' merges warm, J Dilla style sampled chords, with punchy 808s, a deep and warm bassline, dreamy pads and enchanting male/female call and response vocals. Perfect for a warm up or deep in the afters.With heavy support from the likes of Dyed Soundorom, Tini, Harry McCanna, and more, the Post Play boys are ready to add another buy on sight record to their growing discography.
