As the Love Not Money imprint reaches release #17, it's still tough to pin
point the labels signature sound. A melting pot of imagination and tastes
focusing more on making sure each release purveys quality music from across the
board. Next up is something a little different from the multi-talented George
Holliday. With the original here being somewhat of a down tempo 'James
Blake-esque' experimental track, not something we would usually sign, but when
LNM artists and good friend's of George, Cubiq gave us the heads-up and
supplied us with a storming remix that completely went against everything the
original stands for it was obvious how well these parts could be utilised, so
we made a few call's and followed suit with remixes from well known artist Giom
and label boss Luke Pompey. Now George Holliday is better known as a jazz
pianist with an ambition to compose stylish pop. Alongside his chosen career
path writing film scores, his music has brought him opportunities to work with
many artists, thus bringing him arena gigs and even the chance to support the
likes of Jessie J and Rizzle Kicks. The future for George is looking bright as
he pursues many different angles of music from the George Holliday Trio through
to his upcoming funk album due late 2012. 'Never Gonna Grow' is from his 2011
Winter EP and is a fine example of George's song-writing ability. On remixes
duties we have drafted in the world renounced talent of Giom. In a very short
space of time Giom has become one of the most highly sought after producers,
remixers and DJs in the deep house scene and has gone on to work with labels
including Om Records, Ornate, Lo:Rise, Defected and LCG Music, providing both
original music and remixes for artists including Fred Everything, Jay-J and
LawnChair Generals. Not forgetting his long-term partnership with one of the
biggest labels in the House scene right now... 'Lost My Dog'. His remix is a
somewhat hypnotising and constantly evolving piece with lush pad's and dreamy
synth lines, making great use of the vocal and proving graciously why the man
is so in demand. Finishing of the release nicely is a long-overdue remix from
label boss Luke Pompey. With the label on course to hit 22 releases between the
course of 2012 it's understandable the Luke has hardly had any time at all to
get in to the studio but when he does the outcome is always something special.
The result is a sun-drenched Nu-Disco affair driven by a pumping bassline, warm
pads and a funk-laden groove that does not quit. Out of the three, this remix
doesn't stray too far away from the original with amazing use of the part's,
utilising the Rhode's to every inch of it's existence. As the UK summer finally
makes an appearance this EP is a fine accompaniment to any out door party,
festival or nightclub and another stellar release from the LNM stable.
