Hence Compton&#8217;s new Classics On Wax series, which offers vinyl debuts for sought-after gems. Volume one begins with Glenn Underground&#8217;s typically warm, loose, jazzy and organic-sounding rework of &#8216;Into Life&#8217;, before we&#8217;re treated to the sunset jazz-fusion\/deep house fusion of &#8216;Blessed&#8217; (check the Pat Metheny style guitar solos and vocalisations). Over on side B, vocalist Magic Soul delivers a &#8216;spoken word&#8217; mix of the warm, sax-splashed headiness of &#8216;It&#8217;s Hot In Africa&#8217;, before Compton shares his own &#8216;Soweto Onesteps&#8217; version of &#8216;Chillin&#8217; In The Ghetto&#8217; &#8211; his jazzy and sun-baked tribute to South African deep house culture.<\/p>\n<p>Label: Peng<br \/>\nFormat: 12&#8243;<br \/>\nCat: PENG 44<br \/>\nReleased: 01 Apr 26<br \/>\nGenre: Deep House<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.juno.co.uk\/products\/the-rurals-classics-on-wax-vinyl\/1139776-01\/?ref=motionfm&#038;utm_source=affiliate&#038;utm_medium=affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=affiliate_dashboard_referral\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BUY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tracklist<\/p>\n<p>Side A<br \/>\n1. &#8220;Into Life&#8221; (feat Jaidene Veda &#8211; Glenn Undergrounds KMA &#8211; Kiss My Fusion mix) 7:53<br \/>\n2. &#8220;Blessed&#8221; (feat Shamrock) 6:30<\/p>\n<p>Side B<br \/>\n1. &#8220;It&#8217;s Hot In Africa&#8221; (feat Magic Soul &#8211; Magic Soul Spoken Word mix) 7:54<br \/>\n2. &#8220;Chillin&#8217; In The Ghetto&#8221; (Andy Compton&#8217;s Sowetan Onesteps) 8:21<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Operative since the 1990s, The Rurals (Bristol-based Devonian Andy Compton) has amassed an enormous catalogue of high-quality deep house, though over &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":21643,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21642"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21642"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21642\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21644,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21642\/revisions\/21644"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
