Vynehall's dance music is an intimate affair with the smallest of vocal snippets begging to whisper in your ear. The female vocals of \"Beau Sovereign\" let you know that \"Your love \/ is what I want \/ is what I need\" while the strings fill things out over a thumping kick drum. The drums are delivered with just right amount of swing throughout the record. At times it's just a simple kick and snare combo, but there are two step inspired moments as well. \u003ci\u003eRojus\u003c\/i\u003e is the Lithuanian word for \"paradise\" and Vynehall has said that a National Geographic documentary on the mating rituals of birds of paradise led him to draw parallels with the animals and club dancers. Bird sounds are used liberally on a handful of the tracks, further tying it all together. This is especially true of \"Kiburu's,\" a weighty house cut that pulls in all of the elements Vynehall uses on the album. It's a fitting peak to an album as expansive as \u003ci\u003eRojus\u003c\/i\u003e. Eight tracks in all. Released by Running Back on double vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edouble vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003egatefold sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Running Back 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by man from Zanzibar 05\/2016\u003c\/h6\u003e","brand":"Leon Vynehall","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 2LP","offer_id":17025669444,"sku":"dm-5458","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/leonvynehall-rojus.jpg?v=1762271559","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/leon-vynehall-rojus-designed-to-dance-vinyl-2lp","provider":"turntablelab.sbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
