Centric 013

Alf Tumble feat Halina Larsson – Story of a Ghost

http://ymlp.com/zbvP20

Quality House Music “No Fillers” is the ethos of Centric
Music. Here, Alf Tumble and Halina Larsson present a glorious vocal house
effort that lives up to what the label stands for. It is a radiant song that is
set to charm DJs and dancers alike, due to its touching vocals and deep
instrumental grooves. Tumble’s club mixes are accompanied by streamlined
versions from Moodymanc and Tumble’s own midtempo versions on the release,
which is Centric 013.

This package features a whole host of deep and delectable
versions of The Story of a Ghost. The Deep Vocal Mix features pointed beats,
hypnotic synths and awe-inspiring vocals. Serious keys, emotive chords and
Halina’s poetic vocals rule on the Deep Piano Mix. The Deep Dub sees soaring
synths, polite keys and heavy beats work their magic. Moodymanc really gets
into the groove on a remix that will set dancefloors alight. His excellent
reinterpretation features smooth synths, choice vocal moments and smart percussion.
The Moodymanc Dub follows a similar path, offering maximum dancefloor
destruction. Stephen Rigmaiden supplies two cool remixes.

His vocal version
features pointed beats, sultry synths and dreamy vocals. His Dub offers
elevating key work and mesmerising percussion patterns. The Rigas Remix
features twinkling keys, slow stepping percussion and angelic vocals. A heavy
beats and bass combo do the work on the Rigas Remix Instrumental. The Acoustic
Demo is just that, with Halina Larsson’s haunting vocals sitting atop soft
guitar work.

Alf Tumble is best known for his work as one half of
heavyweight Swedish electronic outfits SUMO, Bangana and MaryMary. Under the
SUMO name, they created afro infused house grooves, whilst as Bangana, they
produced powerful techy offerings. Lots of their work was released via the
duo’s own Heya Hii imprint. Alf has done some solo work of late, which has been
well received. Wilder Side, his
collaboration with fellow Scandinavian house hero Rasmus Faber and Disco legend
Candi Staton was released on Defected. When not behind the decks, Tumble’s
passion is wine, but this release on Centric is more akin to effervescent
Champagne.

Guest vocalist Halina Larsson’s background is punk and rock;
she was a member of Chick Habit and a guest vocalist with the likes of Coheed.
You wouldn’t be able to tell her musical past from how she blesses this record
with her deep yet syrupy tones. Indeed, musically she is heading into other
electronic waters, with a number of releases set to drop soon. On the remixes
front, Danny Ward aka Dubble D aka Moodymanc pops up with a couple of straight
grooving interpretations. The Moodymanc is famed for his work on imprints like
20:20 Vision and Tsuba.

Stephen Rigmaiden is
no stranger to the Centric Music family. The owner of So So Deep released the
inspiring Love Keeps record on the label earlier this year and was also
responsible for the well received Analog Invincible EP.

This is a brilliant release from Centric Music that truly
lives up to the ‘No Fillers’ policy. It is a memorable slice of vocal house
that will live in the memory for a long time in the future.

additional production on the moodymanc vocal mix, takes the original into a
