The evergreen Theo Parrish very much sits in his own lane when it comes to house music. His roughed-up style has no peers, whether it's something new dropped this year or a classic from many years ago. That's what we have here with 1997's Musical Metaphors EP. 'Carpet People Don't Drink Steak Soda' is a slow-burning cut infused with humid chord undulations, soulful vocal fragments and a sense of rising party. The magnificent 'Shadow Dancing' is pure heads down, introspective and insular deepness where hi-hats take centre stage next to off-grid chords and the most achingly beautiful keys. 'Wait A Minute' (JB's edit) is a frayed and loopy house with the spirit of James Brown deep within. Sublime - as ever.
