シカゴGreens Keepersを原点に、CLASSIC、DFA、Exploitedなどネクストレベルな存在となったトッププロデューサーJames Curd と、ヨルバ・ソウル、レジェンドOsunladeのコラヴォレーション。-Kai AlcéのリミックスとOsunladeのプロジェクトYoruba Soulのリミックス、Traibal Windsからもリリースしたモロッコの新鋭NX Omarによるアフリカン・トライバルなリミックス(sample1)収録。

近年は自身のレーベル〈Pronto〉を立ち上げ、Marcellus Pittmanや「ラ・ラ・ランド」や「コーダ あいのうた」などを手掛けたグラミー賞受賞の作曲家マリウス・デ・ヴリーズをフィーチャリングしてリリースをしているJames Curdと、ヨルバ・ソウルを受けつづアフリカン・スピリチュアル・ハウスのレジェンドOSUNLADEのコラヴォレーション。黒人霊歌、ブルースを下敷きにしたようなスタイルのディープヴォーカルスタイルで、ユーモアとも、暗示的とも取れるようなチョコレート・プリンについての歌。どのミックスも素晴らしい。サスティナブル・バイオプラスチックを素材にしたBIO VINYLプレス。 (サイトウ)

Two accomplished house mainstays come together on Get Physical Music as James Curd joins forces with the legendary Osunlade for superb new single 'Chocolate Puddin'' while FNX Omar and Kai Alcé step up with their own remixes.

Curd came up as a DJ in Chicago and has gone on to become a mainstay of the scene. He is also credited with inventing G-Swing, a house sound infused with swing. He has run various labels over the years while releasing on some of the world's finest imprints and serving up his magical sets everywhere from fabric in London to The Avalon in Los Angeles and The Arches in Glasgow. American Osunlade meanwhile has deep spiritual roots in Yoruba traditions that are also reflected in the name of his record label. He makes music with a rare spirituality as proven once again here.

The superb 'Chocolate Puddin'' is silky smooth deep and Afro-tinged house with gorgeous percussive melodies and soft shakers. It's full of soul and warmth with meaningful leads that bring plenty of uplifting emotions next to a bluesy vocal.

Atlanta's house mainstay and a long-time underground favourite Kai Alcé then remixes. His version is more pacey but no less deep - the jazzy chords are seductively draped over the cuddly deep drums and the vocal has a more soulful edge. Osunlade also offers his own Yoruba Soul mix which is a hi-tek sound with futuristic synth chords and uplifting house drums. Last to remix is Moroccan mainstay and label regular FNX Omar. He flips the track into something that is richly layered with percussion and nimble bass, organic hand claps and hypnotic drum lines that all sink you in deep.

This package is as delicious as its name suggests.
