Somewhere long ago in a vinyl galaxy near you We Play House Recordings released an E.P. called This Is Still Belgium Vol 1. The release was called like that because the music on it could only have been made by Belgians. Vol 2 never happeneduntil now. Label boss Red D has always been inspired by the rich Belgian club music of the 90s and inevitably those influences have sneaked into his own productions, but never as clear as on the three tracks you are reading about now. And so the original WPH series has been revived with WPH 024.5, aptly called This Is Still Belgium Vol 2. The music is situated somewhere between house, progressive house and early trance music, basically club music with soul & melody at its core. On the A-side we find Red D teaming up with his friend Mona Lee, a soul sister who has been making waves in recent years in soulful house circles and who comes up with the vocal prowess to match Red Ds emotional trip of a track and heartfelt lyrics. Can you handle the break? The B-side opens up with Tides, a deep hypnotic builder for late night eyes-closed dance floors and closes with Papillon, a track that came to life long ago in the minds of Telepaticos (Marcos Salon & Sandro Valcke). When Red D heard a demo version of this one the melody got stuck in his head and never really left him. Many moons later he rediscovered the parts of this one on a hard drive and got to work on his interpretation that features on this E.P. Safe to say the track holds a special place in Red Ds heart and were sure youll feel it as well!
