The Rurals – Classics On Wax 12″ – Peng
Operative since the 1990s, The Rurals (Bristol-based Devonian Andy Compton) has amassed an enormous catalogue of high-quality deep house, though over the last two decades the majority of it has only appeared digitally. Hence Compton’s new Classics On Wax series, which offers vinyl debuts for sought-after gems. Volume one begins with Glenn Underground’s typically warm, loose, jazzy and organic-sounding rework of ‘Into Life’, before we’re treated to the sunset jazz-fusion/deep house fusion of ‘Blessed’ (check the Pat Metheny style guitar solos and vocalisations). Over on side B, vocalist Magic Soul delivers a ‘spoken word’ mix of the warm, sax-splashed headiness of ‘It’s Hot In Africa’, before Compton shares his own ‘Soweto Onesteps’ version of ‘Chillin’ In The Ghetto’ – his jazzy and sun-baked tribute to South African deep house culture.
