![Lucien Foort - The Shame [Stereo Sushi]](http://www.defected.com/images/news_reviews/258.jpg)
Headlines
After 14 uber cool album releases, and many years of playing the world’s finest crowds in some of the most exclusive clubs it’s time for Stereo Sushi to step into the singles market.
This label is all about bringing fine House music to the world and the first release comes from the Dutch DJ and producer Lucien Foort. The track is entitled The Shame and there is nothing a Shame about this track. The nice guys at Stereo Sushi have supplied you with 6 mixes on this track, Warren Clarke, Baggi Begovic, Funky Soldiers and of course the Original are all featured. The Original mix has a very deep house tech vibe going on, and very strong vocal throughout. An almost hypnotic sounding key rift starts before the vocal comes in.
This is one you can expect to hear on local radio shows, a beautiful Spanish guitar is present around the 4 minutes 30 into the track and as other mixes on this package it has that Ibiza feel too it. The Warren Clarke mix has his trade mark tribal sounding bass with a few nice breakdowns. This is the type of track you could expect to hear walking along sunset strip in Ibiza. This is the mix which is going to appeal to the slightly more Funky Soulful floors. Also Warren Clarke has kindly supplied an instrumental version too. A slightly tougher mix comes from Baggi Begovic, this is going to work so well in those peaktime Hed Kandi moments, the elements from the Warren Clarke and Original remain but with a whole new twist, a nice electro vibe words well but it still keeps it funky vibe. Beautiful sounds keys take you into a nice build up and the track has that hands in the air moment. Baggi also delivers a Dub which has a very stripped down vocal but still works so well.
Funky Soldiers are up next on this brilliant first release package. Same brilliant vocal with a version that would fit nicely onto a Stereo Sushi compilation or any Soulful set. All in all a brilliant new release for Stereo Sushi and with more tracks like this is going to be an exciting year. (Antony Angell)
