Cinthie’s Collective Cuts sub-label of her 803 Crystal Grooves label welcomes the UK’s Black Eyes onto its roster
this March with his ‘Hydrocity Reflex’ EP, comprised of four original soul drenched House Jams.
Cinthie’s 803 Crystal Grooves Collective Cuts welcomes Black Eyes with a fresh four-track EP that distils the
Manchester-born, Berlin-based artist’s signature aesthetic into its purest form. Fusing deep, trippy and soulful
house with a raw, Detroit-leaning sensibility, Black Eyes channels the influence of House music’s roots into
rolling rhythms and fluid textures alongside shaped by his enduring love of water. Now firmly embedded in
Berlin’s underground while carrying the grit of his northern roots, he delivers a release that feels both
immersive and driving a natural fit for 803 Crystal Grooves’ dance floor focused sonic vision.
Opening the EP is ‘Can You Dig That Depth’, an emotive slice of House driven by saturated keys, soulful vocal lines,
heavily swung drums and a buoyant bassline. ‘Pressure Malfunction’ follows, stripping things back to organic
percussion, sweeping filtered funk loops and intricately processed spoken-word chants.
The B-side begins with ‘Loyalty To Tha Deep’, living up to its name as it embraces classic Deep House sensibilities
through choppy, airy chord progressions, hypnotic breathy vocals, fluttering melodies and slow-slung, crunchy
drums. ‘Funky Oxygen’ then brings the release to a close, channelling the spirit of Motor City House with a refined
blend of cut-up samples, shuffled percussion, jazzy keys and a snaking bass groove.
Track list:
A1. Can You Dig That Depth
A2. Pressure Malfunction
B1. Loyalty To Tha Deep
B2. Funky Oxygen
