As we are well into our 15th year with Seasons Recordings imprint we reflect back on all the releases over the years and one things comes to mind… PEACEFUL

This is what the music and artwork have brought us and kept us going all these years.

This new project is no different as we welocme a new artist from South Africa to our Seasons Recordings imprint Dee Mac.

This is one of those projects that gave us that warm fuzzy feeling when we heard it the first time and brought us back from the early days of Seasons Recordings.

If you have been with us since the birth we think you will get that same feeling of those early days, if you are new welcome aboard and enjoy the journey…

Remember to play this record loud !

Sonny Fodera – Cold Cuts EP [Large] {promo}

release date: Apr/19/2011

Slamming Deep House ep from Sonny on Large!

Fresh off of his debut at this year’s Get Large Miami WMC party, the assurgent Sonny Fodera releases his first EP with Large Music. Whether you are a Deep House loyalist or firmly committed to straight Jackin’ House, if you are a DJ then your CD wallet holds at least one of Sonny’s tunes. He has been breathlessly at work establishing his production credentials with top tier labels such as Salted, Guest House, Drop Music, and Amenti. At the same time, Sonny has been honing his DJ skills at top clubs across the world as well as in his native Australia. We are thrilled to welcome Sonny to the Large family.

The Cold Cuts EP consists of 4 choice tracks…each one possessing a unique flavor and vibe. ‘Desire’ is a positive House vocal while ‘Keep Me Going’ is a peak-time energy blast. ‘Work’ and ‘All For Love’ showcase Sonny’s more underground Deep House colors while retaining his trademark energy and beats. Enjoy!

Selected Feedback:

Fish Go Deep- All For Love is a good bumping groove, just the right balance of melody and dancefloor bounce. Will play.
Giom- Keep me going and All for love are the standout tracks for me here. Will try them 2 out in France at the weekend, thanks guys, good work!
Grant Nelson- Great! 8/10
Joshua Heath- solid outing overall, good steady chuggers, likely something to play for a variety of djs- all for love and work are the two for me.
Roberto Rodriguez- Hell yes! Very cool bangers. Especially loving ‘Keep Me Going’!
Scope- wicked wicked stuff from mr fodera and the large music camp.. ba boooom!
Nathan G- Well Done Sonny! Work Is the Cut for me. Supporting.
