Warsaw-based Bartosz Kruczy\u0144ski returns as Earth Trax to Phonica\u2019s main label, following on from last year\u2019s well received \u2018L\u2019Avventura\u2019 12\u201d, this time in collaboration with regular production partner Newborn Jr.<\/p>\n
The pair have created a string of brilliant records together, such as \u2018Sax & Flute\u2019 on Rhythm Section, \u2018Mirage\u2019 on Les Yeux Orange and \u2018If You\u2019 on Shall Not Fade. Bartosz also has a growing solo discography under his own name, along with a variety of aliases such as The Phantom, Pejzaz, and of course; Earth Trax.<\/p>\n
The A side here leads with the title track \u2018Truth\u2019, in which rose-tinted reminiscences of the golden early 90s era of House music echo, with dubbed out diva vocals cascading over wide snares, 303 acid lines and that almighty bassline, appearing through shimmering delays and reverbs in a vision of bygone nights at the Hacienda or Shelleys. Next up is the \u2018Back Alley mix\u2019 or a traditional dub mix – everything you need from the main mix but less vocal and more plays on THAT bassline with dub effects.<\/p>\n
On the flip, as its title suggests, \u2018Old Way, New Way\u2019 bridges the gap, combing the same bassline driven Chicago house stylings with the deep new age textures that have characterised previous releases from the pair, flutes and pads floating sweetly above jacking drum grooves, reminiscent of mid-90s Italo House. Finally, \u2018And Then\u2019 fulfils the transformation, with ethereal late night pads enveloping a more lofi rhythm section and more flute for a more subtle, end of night Don Carlos \u2018Alone\u2019 feel.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":428495,"template":"","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[12362],"product_tag":[],"giftcard-category":[],"musicartist":[4279],"musiclabel":[5479],"musicstyle":[37884,37914,37955],"distributormusic":[38305],"musicyear":[],"musiccountry":[39487],"weekmusic":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-428668","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-out-of-stock","7":"musicartist-earth-trax-x-newborn-jr","8":"musiclabel-phonica-records","9":"musicstyle-acid","10":"musicstyle-deep-house","11":"musicstyle-house","12":"distributormusic-rubadub","13":"musiccountry-uk","15":"first","16":"outofstock","17":"featured","18":"taxable","19":"shipping-taxable","20":"purchasable","21":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/428668","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/428495"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=428668"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"giftcard-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/giftcard-category?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"musicartist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicartist?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"musiclabel","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiclabel?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"musicstyle","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicstyle?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"distributormusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/distributormusic?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"musicyear","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicyear?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"musiccountry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiccountry?post=428668"},{"taxonomy":"weekmusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/weekmusic?post=428668"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
