Hailing from Philadelphia, June Lopez launched his career in 2000 with releases as (E)motion Detectors on Worship Records (Philadelphia) and with Chris Udoh on Gourmet Records (Chicago). He can be heard DJing on his bi-weekly radio show, “Synchronized” on myhouse-yourhouse.net where he mixes latin, jazz, broken beat, hip-hop, house, afro-beat, and tech house into a genre-defying blend.
June’s deep-yet-dancey style is well represented in Rhythm Into Motion, a rich deep house track that incorporates a spoken word piece, filtered chords, a smattering of latin percussion, a dense fudgey bassline and a rubbery lead. Kmar’s voice oozes through the music with June highlighting the poetry here and there with effects. June Lopez provides 3 different flavors of his own track: the Original Mix, the TCP Mix, and the TCP Conga Mix.
Alland Byallo (Nightlight, Missive, Poker Flat, Dirt Crew) delivers a deep and groovy remix that slowly builds through Kmar’s spoken word to peak in a culmination of drums and melody. Alland captures a summery vibe using warm tropical pads, dense and wavy synth loops, a wide bassline and lots of drum detail.
