Sinner

Released

There are only five tracks if you get this on vinyl, seven if you get the digital version which includes a single and an additional track. It’s intense and uncompromising deep house music, thick, claustrophobic, with a production that feels as though it’s right up close, as though the sound field is completely full. Dixon’s vocals are at a high level in the mix, pushed to distortion, the texture of his voice that is revealed as much a part of his overall musical sound as a disco sample, an overdriven acid line or a thudding kick drum. Moving away from jazz and abstract experimentation, Sinner has fewer surprises but more drive and focus than some of his previous albums and is just solid, dreamy, potent deep house all the way through.
