Our very own Ritz returns to Piston Recordings with the fantastic three track EP title, Undefeated. A long-time stalwart for us over many years, Ritz continues to wow us with his signature style, keeping the deep house vibes alive and fresh. His last effort here was his Do Somethin’ EP, which gained a great deal of support across the board. As always, it’s a pleasure to have him here and we look forward to more in the future.

Undefeated is up first and right from the off we get locked into the sound thanks to a vibrant display of shuffling percussions and nice chunky beat. Cool, deep house chords add a nice groove alongside short vocal hits. The main hook throws up some snazzy strings, creating a rich dynamic in the sound. Next, we have To Prawnie, which heads straight to the dancefloor with a classic punchy kick and spritely hit hat pattern. A warm analogue bassline sets the groove on fire as snappy snares and cool FX set the rhythms loose. Bright, playful melodies offer contrasting sounds that blend effortlessly with the groove. Concluding the release, we have the Malfunction which delivers an extra level of funk into the EP with a sublime bassline and cascading melodies. An upfront drum section is filled with strong kicks, rhythmic hats and rolling snares which lay the foundation for the extra groovy chords to work their magic. A solid EP that is not to be missed.
