JOLENE 04 by Danny Parton & Mike Parton

House music has been a defining feature of the lives of the Parton brothers for as long as they can remember. They have lived and danced through many evolutions of it and bring all that knowledge and a love of 90s style and classy French touch cool to their own work. It has landed them big releases on plenty of top labels, often laden with superb samples and plenty of dance floor impact. Now they are focussing on their own Jolene Records and impress once more with this fourth outing.

Danny kicks off with "Blow," a loopy disco-house gem lit up with bright synth lines and plenty of lavish hits that all build toward the drop. When it comes, the floor is sure to explode into a frenzy. Next is the fantastic "Don Lobito," with its swirling pads and loved-up vocal sounds drifting over tight, kicking house drums. It's a perfect blend of the physical and the emotive.

Mike then steps up with "Housewife," a moodier cut with menacing late-night energy, funky bass riffs, and loose-limbed drums that are topped with erotic vocal whispers. The instant filter house classic that is "Aspirateur" closes out with feel-good energy, expressive synth flourishes, and soulful drums that bring life-affirming joy to this essential EP.
