Long out of print and highly sought after by collectors, this four-track EP is now available once again for DJs and Deep House heads who missed previous pressings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormed by \u003cstrong\u003eKenny Gino and Mike T\u003c\/strong\u003e, Solid Gold Playaz have been producing underground House music since 1999, building a catalogue that stretches across labels including \u003cstrong\u003eLosonofono, Soulfuric Trax, Kanzleramt\u003c\/strong\u003e and their own \u003cstrong\u003eSolid Gold Records\u003c\/strong\u003e. Their music sits comfortably between Chicago-rooted Deep House and the soulful, machine-driven character associated with Detroit, giving 'Minds Beneath Atlantis' a sound that remains remarkably timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EP opens with \u003cstrong\u003e'Shhh... (Quiet)' featuring vocals by DOT\u003c\/strong\u003e, a beautifully understated piece of deep, late-night House. Warm textures, restrained grooves and soulful vocals combine for the kind of hypnotic deepness that made the record such a favourite among dedicated \u003cstrong\u003eDeep House vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e'U With Me'\u003c\/strong\u003e continues in equally deep territory, leaning towards a distinctly \u003cstrong\u003eDetroit House\u003c\/strong\u003e aesthetic with its raw yet soulful production. There's a stripped-back warmth to the track that recalls the kind of machine funk and understated groove associated with producers such as \u003cstrong\u003eAndrés\u003c\/strong\u003e and Big Strick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the flip, \u003cstrong\u003e'What Lies Beneath'\u003c\/strong\u003e increases the intensity and pushes further towards the Motor City, blending soulful House sensibilities with the drive of \u003cstrong\u003eDetroit Techno\u003c\/strong\u003e. Closing track \u003cstrong\u003e'Mind Control (State Hustle part II)'\u003c\/strong\u003e completes the EP and reinforces the duo's ability to move naturally between deep, soulful House and tougher electronic grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing its original 2003 release and sought-after 2017 reissue, copies of \u003cstrong\u003e'Minds Beneath Atlantis E.P'\u003c\/strong\u003e became increasingly difficult to find, with second-hand copies regularly commanding prices upwards of £50. This repress from \u003cstrong\u003eJerome Derradji's Still Music\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a much-needed opportunity to put this cult Deep House record back into DJ bags and collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for DJs and collectors into \u003cstrong\u003eDeep House vinyl, Detroit House, Chicago House, 2000s House\u003c\/strong\u003e and soulful underground club music.
