Magic Touch - Palermo House Gang

2014 release from House music maverick Damon Palermo AKA Magic Touch. Joining forces with a vast cast of collaborators sourced from his intercontinental travels - Octo Octa, Newbody, Benny Badge, the Horses, Sarah Bates, Sorcerer, Ash Williams - Palermo swings and sweats through funky New Wave club mixes, freestyle R&B, mesh-top House, freeform hardware workouts and decadent Disco for a sprawling celebration of communal motion and dance floor idealism. Sustained heavy touring often grizzles musicians into cynical survivalists but it seems to have had the opposite effect on Palermo - these are his most generous, playful and sensual tracks to date. Let go, lighten up, join the Gang.
