The French Express label just never seems to disappoint, consistently putting out some of the best releases in electronic music....
Sydney's Isaac Tichauer is one of the many artists on the French Express roster and much like his label brethren, he holds a fairly incognito presence in the industry. As a result there actually isn't a great deal we can tell you about him....perhaps then his music will have to speak for itself.
His EP, entitled 'Devotion' and generously given away for FREE, is an absolute masterclass in all things House. The 9 tracks move across Tech, Deep, Minimal and even Progressive influences to paint a complete picture of the electronic genre that started it all.
The simultaneous contrasts and uniting genre genetics at work here are perhaps best illustrated by the two stand out tracks; 'I Like It Raw', a deep and dark roller that wouldn't be out of place in the most obscure Berlin warehouse...and 'You Were Waiting', a progressive number who's piano riffs and synths build to epic climax, fit for any dancefloor...
Meanwhile, that classic Chicago sound is still alive and well in the title track, 'Devotion' and even the recent trend towards Tropical-electro makes an appearance in 'Doing What I Got'.
Altogether this is one hell of an EP, and one that is sure to make any self-respecting House fan stand up and take notice of Isaac Tichauer. Preview below and grab the whole EP for FREE here.
