TONY LIONNI
BIJOU EP
Madhouse Records, 21st November 2011 KCTDL1127 Digital Download / 12” Vinyl
Tony Lionni returns to Madhouse following his massive debut release for the label back in April this year. We’re massive fans of Tony here at Madhouse HQ, and are dead excited to bring you a brand new 4-track EP!
The Bijou EP kicks off with Steps Ahead, a deep but uplifting house groover with some heavy low end to test your subs!
Title track Bijou takes things a little more melodic and groove-based with an off-beat arpeggiated hypnotic synth line throughout, punctuated with plenty of high stabs and a killer punchy bassline.
Hypnotize is pure classic Madhouse sound with crisp driving beats, but with Tony’s rising, elevating style throughout peaking towards the end with soaring synths and enough groove to make this an instant crowd pleaser.
Rounding things off is Rumours – a more slightly more laid back track but still with plenty of dancefloor appeal and attitude. This one’s as pleasing listening at home as it is rocking a sound system in a club!
