We welcome William Kouam Djoko to the Voyage Direct family with his first release for the label.
With this new release by the The Hague native, the label continues to release Dutch only artists.
William delivers some late night house goodies here. The title track is a pulsating and hypnotic track that leads with a repetitive 'We Are Your Brothers & Sisters' vocal before diving into an epic organ and drum break.
'Enforce YS' is a deeper, warmer synth track that really gets under your skin after a few listens. This is the kind of stuff that fills the heart of a hi-tech soul fan. Should appeal to early Carl Craig fans et al.
Strong label debut, which shows that Amsterdam is increasingly becoming a pool of new underground house producers.
