People of the Light unveil Perpetual Gruv EP, a record that marks a faithful return to the labels deep house roots, an offering of 7 tracks of absolute heat that marks Marcus Watkins‘ debut on the label. Hailing from Chicago’s rich lineage of dance music innovation, Watkins crafts three original cuts in Club DetroitSoul Revival, and When I Fly Towards You. A trio that pulse’s with a timeless blend of groove and soul. With warm chords, hypnotic bass, keys that keep you moving and reverent nods to the legends before him, Watkins packages his deeper sound into a truly contemporary narrative.

One of the hallmarks of a POTL release is often the remixes and the package as a whole, this time we have Myles Sergé adding depth to the package, the ever-elusive artist steps up with his Naked Parts Remix of Soul Revival, distilling it into a stripped-back, darker meditation that cuts straight to the floor. Label boss Jay Hill brings her own flavour with her distinct D’Lite version of Club Detroit: a deep-rolling extended reworking for late-night escapades, with Jay’s uniquely chunky groove. Altogether, Perpetual Gruv EP embodies a return to foundational sounds for the label, always pushing fresh sounds inspired by the roots of everything they love.
