About Release
Aruba & Darran Nugent – How Low Can You Go? appears on Sleight of Hand as catalogue SOH-02, an exclusive vinyl that revisits a deep-house classic from the producer’s Aruba alias. The record arrives nearly a quarter-century after the original cut, offering a freshly recorded version that respects the underground energy that made the track a staple for selectors such as Jamie Jones, tINI and Laurent Garnier.
Within the Sleight of Hand roster, the release follows the label’s earlier offering Soundz From My Stereo (SOH-01) by the same artists, extending a brief but focused catalogue that highlights the duo’s commitment to deep and tech-house aesthetics. The new EP therefore continues the label’s emphasis on vinyl-only productions that cater to the tactile demands of the underground.
Side A opens with “Re-Vision”, a re-recorded take on the original that preserves the iconic bassline praised for its chest-pressing impact. The groove is anchored in a deep-house pulse, providing a solid foundation for late-night mixing. The follow-up “Re-Edit” adds a layer of pulsating hi-hats that twist the momentum forward, sharpening the track’s energy while staying true to the timeless feel of the source material.
Side B is devoted to Losoul’s remix, a ten-minute excursion into dark, hypnotic minimalism. The Losoul Remix deepens the atmosphere, delivering a sustained, immersive texture that suits extended set moments and the more introspective corners of a dancefloor.
For DJs, the A-side cuts deliver immediate impact: “Re-Vision” works as a powerful opener or a bass-heavy bridge, while “Re-Edit” offers a rhythmically lively option for building tension. The Losoul Remix, with its extended length and minimal focus, is ideal for peak-time peaks or for weaving into a longer, evolving set. Collectors will appreciate the exclusive vinyl format, which underscores the release’s dedication to analog fidelity and the tactile experience prized by the underground community.
The record is pressed as an exclusive 12-inch vinyl, reflecting the label’s commitment to delivering music in a format that rewards both the DJ’s crate digging and the listener’s appreciation of analog sound.
