toronto hustle & sean roman: the unity ep
Francisco Espregueira
Ascension on Wax unveils its third offering, the Unity EP, a collaborative endeavor from the dynamic duo Toronto Hustle & Sean Roman. Having already generated significant buzz with impressive releases on esteemed labels like Wolf Music, Local Talk, and Freerange Records over the past year, this EP is another deep treat for house music aficionados. The Unity EP delivers a versatile sonic palette, tailor-made for those who deeply appreciate the iconic 90s US East coast sound, showcasing the duo's adeptness at crafting grooves that resonate with both classic sensibilities and contemporary flair.
The Unity EP thoughtfully divides its sonic landscape across two sides. Side A is elevated by the soulful vocals of Detroit legend Javonntte, adding a layer of undeniable depth, and further enriched by a mesmerizing remix courtesy of 90s deep house pioneer Abacus. Flipping over to the B-side caters to the deeper hours of the night, presenting a hard-hitting dub mix designed for those lost in the early morning rhythms, followed by a quintessential deep house roller. This well-rounded release underscores Toronto Hustle & Sean Roman's ability to traverse different shades of house, all while maintaining a cohesive and compelling musical narrative on Ascension on Wax. Available on vinyl.
