Moon Harbour mainstays The Deepshakerz hook up with Zimbabwean artist Xander Pratt on thrilling new single ‘Hotel East.’
Italian stars Domy Berardino and Mirco Sonatore have mastered every house style over their decorated career. They do tech, deep, tribal and plenty in between with equal invention which is why such a diverse array of artists play their sounds including Groove Armada, David Morales and Loco Dice. They have their own well-regarded Safe Music and also drop their heat on the likes of Adesso Music and MadTech. For this one, they work with Pratt, a Morocco-based Zimbabwean avant-garde interdisciplinary artist, fashion designer, philanthropist, writer and entrepreneur.
Their innovative ‘Hotel East’ draws on Afro and tribal house for inspiration. It’s an organic, languid groove peppered with hits, toms and shakers that make it hugely authentic from the off. Pratt’s vocal musings infuse it with further charm as the percussion picks up intensity and is sure to sound superb when played loud in the club. As the pressure builds, wonky synths come into to add yet more character to this highly effective sound.
The Deepshakerz and Xander Pratt find plenty of new ground in this cultured new house rhythm.
