Legendary UK jazz and Northern soul DJ Colin Curtis has recently launched his own imprint label, and released two superb debut jazz dance EPs from UK-based producer and percussionist Glenn Worthington aka Gee W.

Mostly recorded at his home in Wolverhampton during the lockdown period, each record features four brilliant tracks that blend together heavily layered Latin percussion grooves, jazzy house, and funky drum breaks with a focus on the dancefloor. Prior to being released, these tracks became instant favorites on Colin Curtis’s 3-hour Sunday ‘Jazz Dance And Fusion’ online radio show on Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide FM.

With each release limited to just 250 copies, and no plans for a repress, you’ll want to move quickly on picking up a copy as they are already close to selling out. This is dancefloor jazz at it’s best, and certainly two of the best EP releases to come out in 2022.
