Munich based, Lisbon born, Lino Rodrigues, more commonly known as 'Alkalino', is the next artist on the quickly moving Italian Imprint DaBit Records. Here the Portuguese ex-patriot drops three tracks that traverse his musical output to date.
The first track is 'Martin Luther King', which, surprise surprise samples the great civil rights leader himself. It has almost become a cliché within deep house to sample the Dr, but Alkalino manages to keep the spoken word to a minimum and heaps the emphasis on the musicality of the track.
Other track is 'Isolation', the beat and percussion wouldn't sound out of place in a 'Future Sounds of London' track, if only sped up and combined with a few more rave samples, but instead they are pitched right down and complemented by a pad chord progression which works as the track's hook. A haunting vocal interlaces with the chords and bass to build an almost progressive track, a perfect way to end this EP.
Close the Ep 2 Remixes only in Digital Version, one by the genious James Vorres mastermind of Sccucci Manucci and Manucci's Mistress with a reverse version of Isolation pushed to a subsonic world and one by QLab with a super deep house version of Martin Luther King
