The prolific collaboration between Berlin-based dj and producer Arne Grossmuller Jaxson and Swiss-born peppy producer and label owner Daniel Wittwer aka David Keno fattens with this new EP, whose title "Fuzzycat" refers to its source of inspiration, a cat which usually idly delights its ear while spending time in their studio! Muffled bumps and clicks, effected claps, delayed woodsticks, a diluted organ-like sound which could remind a sort of meow and French vocal samples are the main recipes of this seducing deep-house track. The release includes three remixes as well: my favorite one is the treatment by Hamburg-based duo Piemont, who prop it up with heavier bumps, intriguing digital toybells and twitters, voodoo-shaking tech house rhythms, so showing their skills in building good supplements to Jaxson & David Keno's stuff (have a listen to their remix of Silver Palm in order to understand how complementary are the sounds of these projects). I also enjoyed the minimalistic one proposed by Romanian Mihai Popoviciu, who assembles a crunchy groove which in association with the repetition of the pleased whimpering by the above-mentioned French male voice let imagine that fuzzycat while licking its chops after a square meal of crisp food, while Beliners Demir & Seymen's remix gathers a more colourfoul funky vein from teh original track. You're going to appreciate an interesting and somewhat emotional make up by Kai and Karsten aka Intu:itiv on the digital release.
