More Than Before:T.H. White

Title: More Than Before

Label: Gammon

Genre: house

Rating: 5.3 of 7

Apparently T.H. White is one of NYC’s premier producers… what exactly he has produced I am unaware of. His new solo outing, More Than Before, is a compilation of house grooves and funky loops. The album is very dance-y, and is more comfortable in a club than at a rock show. It rides the line of cheesy neo-jazz and decent Brit house… especially with the heavy use of the jazz flute (which I love to hate, or is it hate to love?). The record is upbeat yet remains mellow and smooth, and includes influences from 70s soul and trip-hop. Most of the instrumentation is handled by White, but the vocals are shared by a number of unknown female artists; a couple of the songs even have a large world influence to them. I think that he really shines during the instrumentals. A decent record that is worth checking out.
