Gee Lane

The Toy Tonics label, which emerged out of the ashes of indie-dance label Gamma, is one of our favourite for fresh house. It is always packed with emotion and invention and does the simple things damn well. This is another great example from Gee Lane. ‘Monkeys’ is lively and lithe, with a killer bassline and soulful vocals. ‘Neon Beach’ ups the energy with taught synth stabs and prickly beats and ‘The Fourth’ then taps into old school jack, cowbells and Chicago rawness. A Musclecars remix of ‘Monkeys’ gets more blissed out and the Demi Riquisimo remix is pure old-school, finger-snapping fun.
