1993 Vocal House / Deep House Classic Remastered & Re-issued Inc Accam Dub & Instrumental
The latest on-point reissue from Italy's Groovin' label takes us back to 1993, and the Peter Daou/Danny Tenaglia-produced debut single from vocalist Daphne Rubin-Vega. It's a far breezier, groovier and sweeter record than many of Tenaglia's later productions (which tended towards the muscular), with Rubin-Vega's quietly soulful vocal seemingly drifting across a backing track rich in warm chords and baggy, breakbeat-driven house grooves. All of the various mixes hit the spot, with the trippy, dub-style Reconstruction Mix, vibraphone-laden Groove Instrumental and low-slung Never Do Dub standing out. The Acapella Reprise, which features rich chords and vocal snippets, is also rather good.

Last FM Information on Daphne
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
There are at least 3 artists named “Daphne” :
1. Daphne ( age 20 ) is widely known for her ambient-based excentric music. While she has only been ‘creating’ since 2010, her tracks are loved by many for the simple but strong sounds in her work, the smooth edginess and flowing features. Originating from the far south-west of Holland, Daphne quickly moved to Rotterdam to indulge herself in the local underground techno and minimal scene. Althought the dockworking mentallty is prevalant in her sound resulting in harsh beats and deep baselines, one can still hear vague hints of the beach life she grew up in, giving her sound a more smooth and accecable groove. By many she is compated to the likes of Extrawelt, Moderat, Paul Kalkbrenner and Plastikman. Although these comparisons are spot on, she is always three steps ahead of the scene proven by her own unique and distinct sound.
2. Daphne is a French singer who released her first album in 2005.
