Highlands Music owner Alexander Gaas offers up the label's latest creation, two lush originals of heady summer music for lazy holidays spent on a beach dancing."Westpath" is an understated opener track, with intricate percussion and a wicked bass line. This is a perfect warm-up track for the late summer dance floor filled with elegant ideas and flawless execution down the smallest aural detail. Additional elements include subdued shakers for texture and the faintest of melodies for a nice layered effect. On the b-side, "Spooky Road" starts out right away with a chunky house bass line flying its funk flag. The track slowly and dramatically crescendos before reaching a subtle climax and progressing in to a steady deep house groover that feeds the dance floor. The track is uncomplicated with out being simplistic with the gentle background melodies that are a trademark of the label giving it a rich, luxurious feel.
