Maître de Sagesse Pentland Park Sounds Of Lava Lava

It’s time to get the smoke machines & glitter balls out as Pentland Park bring the heat with their Maitre de Sagesse EP for the 8th release on Lava Lava. The duo have been a mainstay in the Scottish underground scene for many years, gaining a reputation for their eclectic DJ sets and recently clocking up acclaimed releases on Brand New, CB90 Dance Recordings & Everything Will Be OK. Their latest EP is a foray into classic Italo and Disco sounds accompanied by a sensational remix from Somethin’ Sanctified.

Leading the EP, title track Maitre de Sagesse takes you straight onto the dance floor with skipping drums, hazy vocals and a sub-heavy plucked bassline. Hand claps, rattles, guitar licks and fluttering synths inject classic Disco elements into this infectious groove.

On the B side Enterprise is a nod to classic Italo sounds whilst remaining firmly rooted in modern club culture. An effortlessly cool track where rolling hi-hats, arpeggiated bass and retro snare hits bounce alongside soft synthesisers and sharp pads.

Somethin’ Sanctified bring their signature sound with an irresistible analogue take on Maitre de Sagesse laid out across 7 minutes. Crisp percussion, echoing vocals and bright synths lead playfully through the track to a gorgeous breakdown. Resonating low-end bass and four-four grooves bring a classic House flavour to their interpretation.
