8DPromo · Sen-Sei & HUGEhands - Wait For You (Viva Recordings)

After the top ten Traxsource triumph of "You Got Something," the veteran house music duo of Sen-Sei (Delve Deeper, Nervous) and HUGEhands (AKA James Druett — i Records, Sound Vessel) return for another stellar slab of deep and funky dancefloor vibes for Viva Recordings. "Wait For You" showcases the pair's musical prowess, with all music composed and played for the single, including some lovely interplay between saxophone and electric piano. The cut is smooth but driving, a tight four-on-the-floor beat guiding the melodic adventure. Cool processed vocals and layers of sublime flourishes add to the track's sensual late-night air. Legendary producer Demarkus Lewis is enlisted on the remix and fully delivers with Deez Flipper Mix. Demarkus takes full advantage of all the instrumentation options as he cuts, loops, stabs, and generally funks-up the source material. A skippy house beat rides under a generous helping of Demarkus's magic, giving the remix a delirious NY-meets-UK feel. DJs and aficionados look no further — this pack's got what it takes. Don't wait!

Wilbour Craddock (Groovewest) – “The perfect jam for a cocktail, some sun and friends. This is summer house redefined.” Sean Smith (Smooth Agent Records) – “Feeling the original mix. Will try this out.” Andrew Macari (Greenhouse) – “Solid deep vibes.” Michael Fossati (Spirit of House Web Zine) – “A very cool rework by Demarkus Lewis.” Mark Mac (Ibiza Live FM 107.3) – “Two stunning tunes an excellent Original with a smooth classy rework. Top package.” Jon Manley (hOUSEwORX) – “What another epic release this is from the guys, love it, full marks from me.”

8DPromo · Sen-Sei & HUGEhands - You Got Something (Viva Recordings)

When two house music veterans join forces on Viva Recordings for some music action, you know you've got something special. And that's certainly the case with "You Got Something," the first of a two-part single from San Francisco keyboard and studio legend Sen-Sei (Delve Deeper, Nervous) and renowned DJ-turned-producer HUGEhands (AKA James Druett — i Records, Sound Vessel). The pair have come together for a slinky, late-night deep house charmer full of left-coast vibes, dubby flavors, and solid musicianship. A punchy rhythm-and-bass track leads the dancefloor on a journey through affecting vocal hooks, echoed sax riffs, and intricately layered keyboard sections. Col Lawton (Deep Fix Recordings) slips into the collab with a spacious remix of "You Got Something," blending dreamy effects and flourishes with the original's melodic craft. The result is a tad jazzier while gliding further into the deep side, eventually sprinkled with a floor-lifting acid bass line. Both sides of this single are sure to become DJ staples, soon to be accompanied by the release of Part 2.

Hector Romero (Saw Recordings) – “Very nice deep groove by Sen-Sei & HUGEhands.” Tony H (Dirtybird) – “Both the OG and the Remix are very vibey. I did it.” Dan Laino (Phunk Junk Records) – “Both tracks are great, but I’m digging the remix vibe.” DJ Osric (Black and Blue Show) – “Quality house music. Sensational.” Mike Solus (Housemasters Radio) – “Sen-Sei & HUGEhands, thanks for this. I like what you’ve done here.” Jon Manley (hOUSEwORX) – “Top notch Deep House from Sen-Sei & HUGEhands. This is a proper feeling.”
