Fridae

In anticipation of Miami's Winter Music Conference next week, I selected to feature Australian dance outfit Deep Face in today's installment of Disco Friday, my weekly dance item. Deep Face are producer/songwriter Chris Corby, composer Fran Power and vocalist Shirley Davis who shot to club fame with their dance smash EP "Been Good" in 2005. With their new record "Feel The Love" they attempt to repeat that success outside of Australia.

The band was formed at Melbourne's Latrobe University where Chris and Fran studied music technology.  They later added Shirley to the group to complete their line up. Deep Face puts out high-grade dance music with uplifting power vocals, an atmospheric hook and a slow-grinding house groove.

Deep Face's album will be released on the legendary Stricly Rhythm label, whch reopens its door in the U.S. soon.  Deep Face will be released as their first group.

Lead single taken from the album is the outstanding vocal house track "I Want To Live" that was revamped by the Electro Freaks. They turned the smooth and soulful original into a pumping electro extravaganza. (Thanks to the fine folks at Fly Records for allowing me to share this remix.)
