The always-funky Jon Delerious returns to Nordic Trax with a new bag of heat! On his first solo release for the label since 2021’s "Can’t Hold Back," the Canadian producer digs deep with a four-track EP of future funk for the dancefloor.
The EP opens with the bumpty, acid-funk of "Virtual Love" -- a delightful slab of West Coast house for fans of LawnChair Generals and Siesta Records. Next up is the breezy, summertime vibe of mid-tempo jam "Soul Clap Revisited." An instant classic, lay back and let the groove do the work.
On the title track, Jon returns to his deep house roots with a dubby excursion into "Deepest Hour." A dancefloor groover with an understated vibe – hold tight, we’re going deep! Finally, on "Fever Crystal," the Calgary producer gets his rave on with another trip into classic West Coast house territory – a dubbed-out journey over slammin’ beats.
A native of Calgary, Jon Delerious is a regular on the Western Canadian music scene. His 2018 release "Let’s Work" [NT094] was his best-selling release on the label after 20 years on the scene! The title track reached the deep house Top 20 on Beatport and Traxsource and received widespread support from the likes of Groove Armada, Nick Warren, Kyodai, Jamie Trench, Pawas, Rob Da Bank, Kid Enigma, The Revenge, Giom, and Danny Tenaglia among others.
On top of releases for many other excellent labels, Jon’s most recent efforts for NT have included a killer collab with UK producer Finest Wear ("To The Bounce," NT121) and a splendid remix for newcomer Glennny ("Now You Know," NT126).
In summary, this new EP from Jon Delerious is a vibrant and diverse showcase of his ability to create beats that capture the spirit of West Coast house, while also delivering an irresistible depth and freshness for the dancefloor.
