A debut release from Paramodo Records and four mixes of early 1990s US deep house that capture something so universally warm and melodic that it could be mistaken for Italian Paradise house — the transatlantic connection between New York, Chicago, Italy and the Netherlands audible in every chord and groove, that early 1990s sound as unbeatable now as it was then. All four mixes are worth it, none are skippable.

Well Well Well opens the A-side in its Marcus Club Style — a full, melodic deep house cut that immediately establishes the EP's rich, warm character — before the Breakdown Wo! Mello Dub strips things back into more dubby, atmospheric territory. The flip delivers Down across two distinct versions: the Wild Rhythm Groove Mix bringing propulsive, rhythmic energy before Adam H's Elementary Dub closes the record in its most stripped and contemplative form. Four sides of a sound that cannot be replicated even though many have tried. Early 1990s deep house at its most lovely.
