Louie Vega – Expansions In The NYC – Nervous – Gatefold 4xLP

Some of Masters at Work man Louie Vega’s greatest full-length projects have paid tribute to New York’s 50-year dance music story, as well as his personal musical inspirations (most notably the Nuyorican Soul album he penned with long-time production partner Kenny ‘Dope’ Gonzalez in the 1990s). Expansions in the NYC, his latest epic excursion, treads a similar path, offering a large number vocal-heavy numbers that not only blend elements of disco, boogie, proto-house and house, but also feature some genuinely high-profile vocalists from that era (think Peech Boys’ Bernard Fowler, Unlimited Touch). Vega also joins forces with 21st century house star Honey Dijon on the superb ‘Feels So Right’, while the hook-ups with Moodymann, Kerri Chandler and Joe Clausell are as inspired as you’d expect.
