The Shapeshifter’s Pleased as Punch label is going from strength to strength, releasing credible house music and this new release from French producer Kousto cements that reputation further. ‘It’s Up To You’ opens up with brass stabs galore, whilst the second track on the EP, ‘Jamboree’ is just that. A funky ass groove featuring Rhodes organ lines, marimba licks and skippy beats. A great Pleased as… debut for Kousta, and without doubt one to watch.
