Brooklyn’s Octo Octa pushes all the right buttons on his 2nd solo EP for 100% Silk. A-side stars the Aaliyah-sampling winner ‘Deep Hurt’, economically putting an over-used sample to fresh use in a percolating House context beside the Jersey swing of ‘Oh Hurt’. Flipside, the lights are dimmed for the warm chords, choice vocal samples and woozy subs of ‘Night Out’, and ‘I Can Feel You (Dub)’ rides that heat-hazy, sticky House vibe all the way to the middle of the floor.
