Vernon & DaCosta - Nightshift EP

Belgium's Vernon Bara and Massimo DaCosta met in a record shop in their native country's city of Mons back in 2000. Ever since, they have teamed up to release their own original productions that express their combined love of house music. A decade on from that meeting, the duo are still making music together and "Nightshift" serves as a timely reminder of their potential for making dancefloor friendly house tracks.
Having been staple fixtures on Belgium's house scene throughout the last fifteen years, the guys have played high profile events such as Groove City, 10 Days Off and Stereo Sushi. Earning themselves a reputation among house heads, they have also been brought over to play in New York, Chicago, Miami, London, Berlin, Barcelona, Oslo and Amsterdam. Their productions over the years have also proved to be popular amongst DJs such as Luciano, Ricardo Villalobos, Laurient Garnier, DJ Sneak, Derrick Carter, Roger Sanchez and label mates Phil Weeks and Mark Farina. Their ability to combine cold electronic grooves with a warm soul has been a major factor in this popularity. This EP's title track is a classic example. "Nightshift" is a bouncy, 120 bpm affair, filled with clattering high hats, punchy drums and a somber vocal. "Push It" is classic deep house with a Parisian feel to it where as "Never Surprised" has big chords and chunky breaks. The EP's opener "Do It Again" is a peak-time dancefloor monster, as relentless as it is danceable.
"Nightshift EP" continues the relationship between Vernon & DaCosta and French label Robsoul. A dedication to quality house music is the common factor here and neither party disappoints here. House music for running to dancefloor in the wee hours of the night here!
