Tracklist:

01. Moodtrap – Influence
02. Huxley – Take No More

Opinion:

3 artists join forces in order to create the new release on Tsuba Records, with somewhat of a fancy name. But don`t expect any Japanese influences (sadly), just some cool deep-house tracks.

Opinion:

This is the second review of a  Cecille Numbers release, following Part 1 by Livio & Roby vs. George G (which you can find here). If that was pure tech-house, here we have to deal with groovy awesome deep-house. I really never heard about Ethyl & Huxley until I listened to this. And after that it became clear that I had to have this piece of vinyl in my collection.

 Opinion:

 Cecille and Cecille Numbers are one of my favorite labels when it comes to tech-house, releasing work from artists such as Nick Curly, Markus Fix, Sis, Premiesku, Ilario Alicante, Butch... and the list continues. 2010 came with a compilation celebrating 2 years of existence, having 7 tracks and 7 more as a digital download bonus (beats me why they choose to only fill half of the last vinyl side and not stick in another song). Nonetheless this is an excellent work, keeping up with the rhythm and quality of Cecille. I`ve met Nick Curly (who is in charge of the label) at a gig a few months ago and he gave me a superb autograph on the back of the cover (as seen above).
