REVIEW: Haugli & Lizzie Curious - Your Touch incl Lizzie Curious Remix out on Songbird

1. Original Mix

2. Lizzie Curious Remix

3. Lizzie Curious Dub

Your Touch combines the haunting production talents of up & coming producer Haugli, with spine-tingling vocals from Lizzie Curious, to create a truly evocative piece of house music. From the first moment you hear the captivating organ melody and gentle rhodes keyboard, you know this track is going to be something special. Add to this crisp, minimal percussion and warm, expressive lyrics (written & performed by Lizzie) which cannot fail to touch your heart, and you will find yourself heading towards a breakdown of almost ethereal quality - watch out for goosebumps! Meanwhile, on the Tech House remixes, Lizzie Curious showcases her production skills, stepping up the tempo and injecting her Curious groove into proceedings, thanks to the rolling percussion and bouncy bass. An electrifying breakdown propels you towards a thundering crescendo, before stripping back into the undeniable groove, all the while allowing the vocals to shine through. A dub mix is also included for those heads-down-at-6am on the dancefloor moments!

Following a fantastic 2013 (with track support from the likes of Roger Sanchez, Fatboy Slim and Prok & Fitch, Radio One airplay and a Beatport #1, plus shows in New York, the Cayman Islands, Houston, Bahrain, Space Ibiza, Ministry of Sound London and a weekly radio show on Select UK), vocalist/songwriter/producer/DJ Lizzie Curious is set for big things in 2014! Thanks to her inimitable DJ performances, she holds a residency with Kidology in London and also runs her own brand Curiousity Club, encompassing a label and road block clubnights. With past & future releases on labels including Juicy Music, Black Hole, WhoreHouse, Big Fish, Ulybug, Got Skilz, Kidology and Curiousity Club, it's no surprise that this in-demand artist has worked with and been remixed by Robbie Rivera, Cosmic Gate, StoneBridge, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Alex Gaudino, Thomas Gold, George Acosta, the Dolly Rockers, Lazy Rich and the Hoxton Whores, to name but a few. And with 6 releases already confirmed for this year, the future is looking very bright and very busy for the ever-smiling house music maestro!

Haugli's stunning productions caught the ears of StoneBridge in 2013, leading the house music legend to proclaim a new genre of dance music, FjordHaus, had been born! Stoney Boy records then released a stunning 3 track EP from this young Norwegian producer to much critical acclaim. His music is described as 'smooth funky touch with clear NYC inspiration mixed with nordic ice', with his bootlegs of the likes of The Police, Moby and Empire of the Sun gaining him fans from all around the world. 

Dimitri Kechagias review: Songbird is the legendary record label that has been associated with the balearic laid back sound that includes traces of house and trance. If you search for the label that represents the good vibes of Ibiza this label does exactly this in the finest possible way. The original mix is a magnificent deep melodic sexy groovy laidback production with housey grooves, funky edges and very emotional melancholic melodies as well. It's great how nicely the velvet creamy atmosphere is blended harmoniously with Lizzie's outstading voice and her deep erotic sensual luscius performance. It will be played in deep house and deep balearic trance sets as well. Lizzie Curious steps in as well to deliver an equally mesmerizing version that moves on the deep tech house territory with tribal house beats, organic percussion, deep haunting basslines and cool soothing strings on top. If you play the Italian deep tech house sound you are going tottaly to adore this and play it many times in your sets as it is very danceable with irresistable rhythm and sunny summery atmosphere. If you prefer the track without Lizzie vocals there is dub version as well.  Quality always wins and this release is another Songbird jewel. Love IT
