RM028 Ed Ridgley - From This Groove
From This Groove, a 2024 release, sets a spoken house-music manifesto against two contrasting grooves. Ed Ridgley's original rides kick, clap and hats over a bouncy synth bass, with male voices declaring that "house music is a universal language" and "from this groove came the grooves of all grooves," a pads-and-vocals breakdown clearing the floor before the drop. Dano's Shelter Dub tightens the frame with crisp claves and rimshots, a rubbery bassline and dubby delay chord stabs around the same spoken hooks, adding late-night, shelter-room bounce. Both versions honour house music's gospel roots while keeping the low end thoroughly modern.
