Small Great Things. is back with another stellar EP from label owner Luca Olivotto!
In recent years, Italy via Berlin artist Luca Olivotto has been etching his mark on the
underground House scene through his labels Small Great Things, Endless Music
and recently minted At A Glance, as well as his Small Great House events series.
Here the story continues with a fresh collection of works from the prominent House
producer and DJ.
Opening is title-track ‘It’s Too Dark’, a six minute excursion through bright piano
keys, swinging drums, soulful vocal stylings and a bumpy bass hook. ‘It’s Over’
follows and dives into deeper House territory with warm strings, organ stabs, and
choppy subs intertwined with crisp drums, soft Rhodes and cut up vocals.
Opening the flip-side is ‘I Found You’, upping the energy levels again with a high
energy melodic drive, hypnotic vocal lines and heavily shuffled drums. ‘See Thru’
then concludes the release and leans into a more Disco-tinged House realm with
intertwined funk samples, sweeping filter work and intricately processed vocal
chants running atop a sturdy rhythmic foundation.
