To paraphrase a suggestion from our own Jake, don't be a boob and call Taiki & Nulight deep house. While signatures of the genre certainly mark the duo's production (evocative piano chords, plenty of warm bass, intelligently emotional vocal sampling), their percussive choices and a general sharpness to their style keep them from being too easily pigeonholed. On their remix of Linden Jay and Ruby Wood's coolly atmospheric "Break The Hold," Taiki and Nulight employ the signatures of their style, giving new energy and edge to the original. Week's only starting, but this has us ready to cruise into the weekend. Check it out below.
