Livity Sound welcomes Joe Milli to the fold with an assured EP of crisp club workoutsthat land between techno's evocative depth and UK funky's offbeat, drum-focusedfunctionality.Over the past few years Milli has been establishing his sound across a swathe ofradio shows, guest mixes and releases, and he lands on Livity with a timeless take onthe label's commitment to stripped back, atmospheric soundsystem music.There's variety across the Deep Forest EP, ranging from the balmy bassweight houseof the title track to the deep-diving dub pulses and bruk drum science of 'LookAgain'. 'Keep That Wire' draws nervous energy from its synth hooks and the taut,angular beat before the rolling Detroit techno pulse of 'Expressions' brings the EPhome in punchy, percussion-loaded style.In line with past releases from the likes of Bakongo, DJ Polo and Tribal Brothers,Milli's strength lies in his ability to bend the UK funky formula to different styles, allprecision-tooled for the club.Livity Sound is a label set up by Peverelist in 2011 as a vehicle for a raw andexploratory strain of UK techno, rooted in the heritage of UK dance music and soundsystem culture. It has since become one of the UK's foremost protagonists for cuttingedge underground electronic music.Tracklist:a1: Deep Forest a2: Look Again b1: Keep That Wire b2: Expressions
