DESCRIPTION:
Deep House, With Spoken Vocals - i:Cube & DJ Nature On Remix Duties - Delusions Of Grandeur is proud to welcome back emerging producer, multi-instrumentalist, and vocalist Declan McDermott for his standout new EP, Why Don’t You Believe Me? Blending analogue hardware and live musicianship with deep, groove-driven production, the release showcases a confident and colourful voice in contemporary underground house. I:Cube & DJ Nature on remix duties!
Fresh from delivering a superb debut single, 'Doin' It All For You', multi-instrumentalist-turned-deep house producer Declan McDermott returns to Delusions of Grandeur with EP number two. 'Why Don't You Believe Me' is representative of his warm and colourful, hybrid organic-electronic deep house sound, with spoken word and vocoder vocals rising above crunchy beats, heady chords, jaunty synth solos and undulating bass. Paris scene stalwart I:Cube delivers the first rework, re-imagining it as a chunky, throbbing and more energetic chunk of late-night house hedonism, before Bristolian-in-NYC DJ Nature offers up a dustier, organ-rich take in his lo-fi deep house style. Bonus cut 'Yara-Kimba (Lindeman Island)', meanwhile, is a percussion-laden tropical house treat.
