Scope – Big Bad City [Large] {promo}
release date: Mar/08/2011
Classic Disco House ep with support from Pezzner, Giom, Mark Grant and Fred Everything
Time flies when we’re having fun and it certainly doesn’t seem like it was 3 years ago when SCOPE joined the Large Music family.
Today SCOPE is back once again and we’re proud to say it’s his 5th original release on our label!
For this release Ric has looked more to the past than the future for his inspiration. Remembering the days when House music was influenced by musicality and instrumentation, rather than efx and modern production techniques. The ‘Big Bad City’ EP is a real example of looking back, but thinking forward.
The title cut ‘Big Bad City’ is an old skool piano House work out. A feel good, uplifting disco house jam that sounds just as good in a warm up set as it does as an end of the night anthem.
On the flip, ‘Deep Inside’ is another Disco House burner. The phat rolling bassline is suitably sandwiched between swinging, heavy disco drums and some beautifully blended instrumentation. This lovely track is presented in 2 mixes depending on your mood and dancefloor.
Large Music and SCOPE continue to set the standards for real Deep House music..we hope you agree.

release date: Mar/01/2011
Celebrating 5 Years of Lazy Days, Llorca (Art Of Tones) remixes his favourite track from the catalog, Tortured Soul You Found A Way.
For the 5 Years of Lazy Days, we invited 4 of our favorite remixers to revisit a track from the catalog. Exclusive to Traxsource, we have 3 great remixes from Llorca under his much celebrated Art of Tones moniker. His choice was easy, Tortured Soul You Found A Way. For this remix, he turned to his early NYC House influences to give us one of the best Soulful House song we heard in a long time. Timeless and classic. Coming next, we have Ian Pooley, Crazy P and Greg Wilson in the mix!
