T. Jacques – Fingertrips

Review:
Following fine early outings on House Puff, Tessellate and Dansu Discs, T Jacques co-founded the Nuances De Nuit label. While that outlet has been his main home for the last few years, he still occasionally guests on other imprints. It's what the rising star is doing here, making his first appearance on Gene On Earth's popular tech-house/deep house fusion imprint Limousine Dream. He begins with the warm and woozy 'Houze Control', a thickset slab of loose-limbed deep house excellent peppered with spacey synth sounds, before combining intergalactic tech-house sounds with chunky grooves on title track 'Fingertips'. Over on the reverse, 'Inside Out' is a slightly tougher - but no less bass-heavy or intergalactic-sounding - workout, while '2 Hi' is deep, dubby gear for very late nights and early mornings.
