It goes without saying that Vinny Da Vinci is one of South Africa’s true DJ legends. If you fancy yourself even partly knowledgeable on the house scene over the past 15 years in this country you’ll have heard the name if not witnessed one of his DJ sets. Cited as a major influence to so many DJ’s interviewed within these very pages over the year’s many will tell you that Da Vinci’s gift is to whip out the most unassuming tracks at the least expected moment in his set and simply rock the floor beyond. Much respect is held in the fact that he does not need to play the hits to get a response from his audience. He knows good music (as DJ’s should) and he plays good music. Deep House Sounds Vol. 8 sees a return of this legendary series with vintage Vinny mixing up international gems (Priss, TL Cross, Atjazz to name a few) with local heroes, Mr Cee, Simbad ft. Brian Temba and a priceless Black Coffee remix to boot. But it’s the sum of the whole that really impresses with a sublime Da Vinci DJ mix that’ll have party people and trainspotters alike bopping in appreciation. A top notch release.
