EARLY WORKS
A Recloose Retrospective, Featuring Unreleased Tracks & Forgotten Gems From This Maverick Producer’s Earlier Years...He's Still The Don!
Recloose presents his ‘Early Works’, a compendium of tunes he cut his teeth on before leaving his home city of Detroit
and coming to live in New Zealand.
With this compilation, assembled by Holland’s esteemed Rush Hour label, we celebrate Recloose’s early work from the late
90s and early 00s. The compilation includes his best music from that period, both released and unreleased. In fact, it’s
an even score with seven released tracks and seven unreleased tracks.
The CD starts with tracks from his first two releases, both for Carl Craig’s Planet E imprint, from 1998 and 1999- So This Is The Dining Room and Spelunking. It is Spelunking especially that solidified his name and earned him a worldwide fan base, eventually leading to his first long-player Cardiology.
This CD once again showcases Recloose’s talent for merging electronic music with just about any preceding form of music:
jazz (First Off, originally released under Dapp on Omoa Music), reggae/dub (Insomnia In Dub), soul (Can’t Take It), etc.
Besides his earlier work (primarily from the Planet E label), this release also contains seven unreleased tracks from
this period to give a broader insight into his early production period to please all his fans.
