Seiji

Seiji 4 EP

Seiji – the much-lauded and respected producer from West London – returns with the penultimate part of his 2010-launched SEIJI series. Having successfully explored a career path that’s established him as a founding member of Broken Beat originators Bugz In The Attic, a key artist for the seminal Jungle/D’n’B label Reinforced, a downbeat solo artist for Sonar Kollectiv and a producer and co-writer for the brilliant Roisin Murphy, in 2011 Seiji is a man focused squarely on the dancefloor. The SEIJI series is just one part of that with Seiji stripping things right back, identifying each release with a simple number and putting all his energy into creating music that he truly believes in. A merging of sounds and influences that have always been with him, but have never sounded so right – encapsulating everything that’s exciting about the underground UK scene at the moment. As with the previous two releases, SEIJI 4 is a double A-side focusing on the current UK house sound, a bit soulful, a bit funky a bit jacking, with two solid heavy grooves that are going to work on any house dance floor. No Other has a really soulful vocal sample, a rolling reese bass riff and percussive UK house beats. Easy is more of an infectious skippy house groove with a chunky bass hook and deep techno pads.
