Product Description


Over the past two years Pete Dafeet has emerged as a bright young talent in UK house music. At 23 he has produced for some of deep house’s hottest labels, including Robsoul, Shaboom, Bosh, Uniform Recordings, and of course Lost My Dog. Pete’s music has found a permanent home in the record bags of most deep house DJs and the future looks bright, with Lost My Dog going from strength to strength, and with releases due out in 2007 on Blacksoul, S-Sens, Headtunes, and Uniform.
All four tracks on this EP might never have seen the light of day but for some persistence at LMD towers and the kindness of the labels involved. The remixes were originally set for release on Manchester's 3am Recordings (Ben Dean and Dealer's Choice) and Blackpool's Bosh (Kreepz + D-Tain) before, sadly, both labels decided to call it a day as far as vinyl was concerned.
"Twelve Thirty Something" demonstrates Pete’s ability to build a killer track from the drums upwards; crisp beats and a punchy snare create the track's backbone, allowing the lead synth and mellow pads to bubble and float in an uplifting, but slightly demonic, slab of deep house. "Moody Gear" utilises D-Tain’s original spoken vocal, which rides over the top of a simple, but killer, groove. The track builds with warm pulsating bass and hollow bleeps - the latter created by two dolphins hooked up to the mic at Pete’s South London studio (maybe). The elements are stripped back into a minimal, thumping breakdown before the hypnotic groove is reintroduced.

"Funtime" comes with 2 mixes. First up is the “Late Night Lake Remix” with stomping, purposeful beats paving the way for warm synths and the monster electro-tinged bassline borrowed from the Dealer's Choice original. The track carries a certain 80’s feel with moody chords not too dissimilar to Didier Sinclair’s seminal “Lovely Flight”, on Serial Records. Pete’s 2nd mix, the “Fun in the Cellar Remix” uses forceful beats to underpin a more techy, dance floor affair, combining a dirty bassline with gritty warehouse stabs for guaranteed nighttime madness.
