VA - This Is Then (2018)

Seth Troxler follows his recent release on Play It Say It with this fine split release. Working as Young Seth, he drops the deep, dubbed out house of “Moment”, while “Relationships” sees him working under his own name with an equally cavernous but acid-laced groove. Then it’s back to dance floor business for the time stretched vocals and stripped back rhythm of “Satisfy” and “Still Hot”, a tracky affair penned with Shaun Reeves from Visionquest. However, this release demonstrates that Troxler is a restless producer and “Jus Your” is a quirky electro-funk affair, while “Aphrika” is an off beat, vocal led house jam. The release also features an old school house take on Kiki’s “Good Voodoo” and Troxler’s pulsating take on Fever Ray’s “Seven”.
