"Hot Creations drop fellow east London producer Alexis Raphael’s eagerly awaited ‘Into The Light.’ Both original tracks from the acclaimed producer on this release have been circling the clubs for some time now, with ‘Into The Light’ being picked up for Jamie Jones and Lee Foss’ sets since summer 2011. The B side ‘I Know’ has itself amassed a huge underground following, thus making this one of the most highly anticipated releases on the imprint of late. The label bosses turn in a Hot Natured remix of the title track to add extra spice.
Raphael’s two tracks on here display his inimitable yet intricate and diverse underground house sound. ‘Into The Light’ builds patiently with a deep bassline and murky synths before sci-fi FX begin to seep into the mix. As the moody atmosphere reaches breaking point, the track spills over into lush grooves and a stripped back dancefloor feel as a sexy female vocal lays over the top.
‘I Know’ finds Raphael in a different mood altogether, settling into a laidback and classic sounding groove. Its melodic bassline paves the way for a more sensual and textured track that still moves with a pulsating backbone. Dreamy synths and sleek vocal snippets give it plenty emotion too. You can easily imagine this record being a genuine early 90s track, but such is Raphael’s skill that the Creche man brings a classic feel to a modern underground bomb..." via I Voice
