DJ T. – Music Is Therapy EP – (Moon Harbour)

DJ T. is a dance music legend. He has done it all, from starting the famous Groove Mag to being involved with Get Physical when it first started. He has also put out many great EPs and LPs and has toured the world many times over. One thing he hasn’t ever done before though is release on Moon Harbour, the top tech outlet run by Matthias Tanzmann. Now he rights that wrong and does so in fine style with three top cuts that will all make a big impact.

Each one is a slightly different beast, but for me the most standout is the final cut which features Joe Le Groove in some capacity. It is a forceful put playful house cut with rubbery drums, crisp hits and an upright groove that makes you stand tall and dance with your chest stuck out. The other two tracks are quicker and more techno leaning. Our House has a killer bassline tumbling down through the mix as spooky synths dangle up top and knowing filters and FX add real drama to proceedings as well as plenty of tension. Music Is Therapy is the opener and this one is a lumpy, ramshackle tech groove with loose hits and firm drums making you march to DJ T’s always on point beat.
