Fabric 74
In fabric 74, David has created a mix which oozes the melodic qualities that he’s made his own in his career as a DJ. Drawing inspiration from his sets for Freerotation, where he’s famously brought himself and the crowd to tears with his music, the mix is a masterclass in emotive selections. House with a capital H dominates the mix, with Moufang setting his stall out early with Roy Davis Jr’s oft overlooked ‘Under Tha Sun’ and the soaring soul of Liberty City’s ‘Some Lovin’’ sitting either side of inimitable Tenaglia collaborator Liz Torres to get things moving. Other classic nods come from K-Alexi with his dub of MD III ‘Shake That Body’ and DJ Pierre’s ‘Annihilating Rhythm’, under his Darkman alias, but we’re also treated to cutting edge sounds from David’s Magic Mountain High collaborators Juju & Jordash and Last Magpie’s unholy bass cut, ‘Roots’, as the mix hits its peak before closing out with a spaced-out finale, melting the fresh, unreleased Move D / D-Man cut ‘Luvbyrds’ into Willow’s enchanting ‘Feel Me’ before slipping into Smallpeople and Christopher Rau’s introspective ‘Unke’. As with all Move D sets, fabric 74 displays the length and breadth of what deep house is and what it can be and does so in a way that manages to be both slick and dynamic. Magic, as ever from, Move D.
