The Golden Boy - The Promise [Eton Messy Records]

Once again, Eton Messy is hitting the mark on another upcoming release.  I've been listening to The Golden Boy for quite a while, and I know Eton Messy has been supporting his work for a long time too, having launched their free downloads series with one of his tracks "Oh My Gosh". Putting out a Golden Boy release on the Eton Messy Records label makes a lot of sense.

The Promise is a deep house roller with an emotional vocal.  This is layered on top of a nice semi subtle bassline that is light enough to fit in an easy listening session at home, but hits hard enough to be just as at home on any dance floor. All of this is topped off with accent keys providing a little more interest in the higher frequency range. All together, it makes for a great and catchy house track, which is unsurprising, given the solid history of both the producer and the label.

The Promise will be getting a full release on April 12th.  Until then, stream it from Eton Messy's Soundcloud to your heart's content.
