#61 Feat. New Releases in Funky House

Prepare for an immersive sonic experience as Scottish DJ/Producer Dark Kandy unveils his latest EP, Asherahs Avenue, via Wirelab Records (WRLB059). This two-track release isnt just a collection of grooves; its a journey through meticulously sculpted deep house textures with a refined minimal touch. Dark Kandy masterfully blends rolling, syncopated percussion with warm, heady basslines, shimmering pads, and stylish melodic accents—crafting a hypnotic, emotive atmosphere that rewards both the dancefloor and deep listening sessions. Avenue Funk opens the EP with an irresistibly groovey pulse—sleek drum programming, supple low-end movement, and tasteful stabs interlock to create a fluid, late-night momentum. Its understated minimalism gives each element space to breathe, amplifying the tracks funk-forward swagger and refined swing. Asherah follows with a deeper, smokier mood—lush chords, glassy motifs, and subtle rhythmic interplay evolve in layers, building a transportive soundscape that balances sophistication with dancefloor purpose. Its a classy slice of deep house minimalism, rich in detail and perfectly paced. Avid listeners and fans of contemporary deep/minimal house will find much to appreciate in Dark Kandys sophisticated approach to groove, space, and sonics. Asherahs Avenue marks the 59th entry in the Wirelab Records catalogue—founded by CJW (Colin Wright) and now a collaborative effort with Barry Johnstone (aka Dark Kandy). With a renewed focus and a string of standout releases, Wirelab Records continues to solidify its position as a force in the modern electronic landscape. Asherahs Avenue will be available on all major streaming platforms.
