Crowd Control - Is It Daylight?

Life is easy when one of your favourite artists drops a track just in time to get your week off to a smooth start. That was the case today when French house producer Crowd Control released "Is It Daylight?" as part of his 3 track Housy Love Songs Vol. 1 EP. Just last week Meech and I chatted (here) about the onetime BADLQQK rookie, and our love for him, especially his bootlegs, and here we are gifted with this beautiful, sampled based take on Ashford & Simpson's "It Seems To Hang On." Like his McFadden & Whitehead and more recent Black Box remixes, this too features fantastic use of filters, injecting a playful movement into every moment of the track. The drums bump and  bang, finding a funky balance between the four on the floor norm and the glitchy playful effects. However my favourite piece of this production comes in the subtle swells of synths, brass bursts and smooth sliding sample usage. Get Crowd Control's latest disco delight "Is It Daylight?" via Bandcamp and follow his socials below.FOLLOW CROWD CONTROL: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
