- The craze over lo-fi house has left the scene with a handful of once-anonymous stars whose tracks—first heard on YouTube—have led to international DJ bookings, debut albums and a chance to break out of the confines of the style. This crop includes Ross From Friends, who's currently touring a live show, DJ Seinfeld, whose debut LP is diverse and moody, and Mall Grab, who's now one of the biggest names in dance music. The young Australian, real name Jordon Alexander, emerged as the poster child of the style with YouTube anthems like "Feel U." He's followed up with a steady output of records and fun-filled DJ sets that have kept his momentum rising.
Alexander's latest 12-inch, I'll Be In Paris On Sunday If You're About?, on Damiano Von Erckert's Ava. Records, contains tracks that will sound familiar to fans. The record's lead tune, "Caught Slippin'," features a clever War sample amidst a slinky 4/4 house groove. "Out Of Time" sees Alexander explore his trippier side with a chopped-up vocal floating around muffled breaks and a simple synth line. "Ahmad" and a Von Erckert remix close out the record with Mall Grab's signature muffled kick drum. While the EP doesn't dip into techno or disco house like some of Alexander's recent releases, it's clear he hasn't lost his trademark touch.
