“Trumpets Victory” is a full-on-attack on your feel-good-hormones: A stompy bassline, an oldskool clap snare, a cut-up vocal for some rhythmic orienation, some white noise and then the most beautiful trumpet melody imaginable. If you think though that this was all there is to this EP, flip the record for more mindblowing melodic tech-house sounds. “Guitarra Baja” is equally strong. A Spanish guitar leads the path for this late-summer-anthem that reminds us of how house music used to be and should be forever: groovy, bouncy, seminal. David August seems to be a master of melodies and grooves. Last up there is “Children”, a more percussive house affair with a playful organ line joyfully jumping up and down over the wonderfully wooden bongos and metallic hi-hats.
