Welcome back Secondo! We are very happy to have Secondo back to the home base after his excursion to release a full length album for Soul Jazz Records in 2008. He has since been busy in the studio again working on new Secondo, AM/PM and other material. This release marks the first outing of the recent work and will soon be followed by more. Here we have a double A-side 12-inch, with an intriguing new development of the Secondo sound. Still banging, still aimed at the club but with a sense of maturity and laid-backness, that the previous Secondo material for Dreck Records might not have been centred around. The whole outlook has become more House orientated and we are very excited about this new mixture of the Secondo splice-funk with the steadiness of early 90s House generating its own idiosyncratic sound. On the A-side, ’I think I’m gonna Like’ establishes the housey mood of the 12" straight off. A brief vocal sample is dotted over a relaxed rhythm until a break mid-track introduces the second half to its full extent and bloom. ‘Doktor Pangloss’ on the B-side continues with the mid-tempo flavour set out by the Aside and is defined by a steady build up towards a disco sample beautifully placed towards the end of the track, where a heavy bass line cuts short the euphoria of disco strings. The sampling and references in both tracks have been pushed to the background and mentioning any of them would not do this exciting new material any justice. It’s all fresh! Capracara (DFA/Soul Jazz) says... "A killer EP from Secondo - warping splintered disco loops arxound classic NY style stabs. The Strictly Rhythm revival starts here!" Trevor Jackson says... “These trax are great, will play out for sure!”
