MICKY MORE, ANDY TEE — Analog Dreams EP

Micky More & Andy Tee return to Groove Culture with Analog Dreams EP, catalog GCV043, a four-track 12-inch vinyl release that celebrates the warmth, musicality and physical character of classic house music while bringing that heritage into a contemporary dancefloor setting. Scheduled for September 2026, the EP features “Funky Lady” with Reverendos Of Soul and Fatimah Provillon, “Groovin’”, “All The People” featuring Fatimah Provillon, and “Falldown”. Across the four tracks, the Italian production duo work across Soulful House, Disco House, Nu Disco, Funky House and Jazzy House, creating a record aimed as much at musicianship and atmosphere as pure club functionality. The title Analog Dreams is an accurate description of the EP’s philosophy. Groove Culture presents the record as a deliberate celebration of analogue hardware, live instrumentation and analogue mixing at a time when much contemporary dance music is produced almost entirely inside the computer. The four compositions are presented as fully realised original productions rather than simple loop-based edits, giving the release a more substantial musical character. The emphasis is on warmth, depth, texture and the interaction between electronic production and played instrumentation. That approach places Micky More & Andy Tee firmly within the lineage of house music that treats the studio as an instrument. Their productions draw on the vocabulary of classic disco, soul, funk and house while retaining the rhythmic precision expected from a modern 12-inch. The result is music that can work in a DJ set without sacrificing the melodic and harmonic details that make it rewarding away from the dancefloor. “Funky Lady (With Reverendos Of Soul) Feat. Fatimah Provillon” opens the A-side and immediately establishes the EP’s soulful character. The collaboration with Reverendos Of Soul adds another layer of musicality, while Fatimah Provillon’s vocal presence gives the track the emotional focus of a classic vocal house production. The groove draws from disco and soulful house, but the production remains contemporary enough to sit naturally in a modern house set. Rather than treating the vocal as a decorative element placed over a generic rhythm track, “Funky Lady” is constructed around the relationship between the vocal, groove and instrumental arrangement. The combination gives the track a strong sense of movement while retaining the warmth that defines the broader Analog Dreams concept. It is an uplifting opening cut, but its appeal comes from musical detail rather than simply increasing energy. The second A-side track, “Groovin’”, shifts toward a deeper and more instrumental direction. Its foundation remains rooted in house, but the track introduces smoky Italo House colour and saxophone, giving the arrangement a distinctly live and sophisticated character. The saxophone becomes an important part of the track’s identity, adding organic phrasing against the steady electronic groove. This contrast between machine rhythm and live instrumentation is central to the record. “Groovin’” does not attempt to imitate the past through excessive retro production techniques. Instead, the classic references are incorporated into a contemporary house framework, allowing the track to sound warm and familiar without becoming a period-piece recreation. The deeper groove also gives DJs a useful change of temperature after the more vocal-led opening track. The B-side begins with “All The People (Feat. Fatimah Provillon)”, bringing the EP back toward vocal house while increasing the emphasis on piano. The track is built around energetic keys, soulful vocals and a driving house rhythm, placing it firmly within the tradition of hands-in-the-air vocal house while maintaining the polished production associated with Groove Culture. Fatimah Provillon’s return creates an additional thread connecting the two sides of the EP. Her vocal contribution to both “Funky Lady” and “All The People” gives the record a recognisable human presence, while the two productions place her voice in different musical contexts. On the A-side, the vocal is surrounded by disco and soulful textures; on the B-side, the piano and driving rhythm give it a more direct peak-time house function. The final track, “Falldown”, moves toward Nu Disco and Deep House territory and provides a more understated conclusion. Colourful disco-influenced textures sit alongside a smoother house groove, creating a track that feels warm and tactile without needing the overt vocal emphasis of the previous cut. Its position at the end of the EP gives the record a natural sense of release after the more energetic “All The People”. The four tracks therefore create a carefully balanced sequence. “Funky Lady” introduces the soulful and disco elements, “Groovin’” moves deeper and brings live saxophone into the arrangement, “All The People” delivers the most overt vocal-house energy, and “Falldown” closes with a smoother Nu Disco and Deep House sensibility. Although the genres overlap throughout, each track has a clear role within the overall progression. Analog Dreams EP is also significant within the Groove Culture catalogue. The label has established a distinctive position around disco, soulful house, Nu Disco and related forms of groove-driven dance music, with a strong emphasis on vinyl. GCV043 continues that aesthetic while presenting Micky More & Andy Tee at the centre of the label’s musical identity. The release is distributed as a 12-inch vinyl pressing and is scheduled for September 18, 2026, according to multiple specialist distributors. The record has also attracted support from an unusually broad group of established house and disco selectors. The listed supporters include Danny Krivit, DJ Spen, Tony Humphries, Simon Dunmore, John Morales, Dr Packer, CJ Mackintosh, Kevin Yost, Groovy P, Hector Romero and Souldynamic. The range of names is revealing: these DJs represent different generations and branches of soulful, disco, garage, deep and classic house culture, underlining the EP’s ability to connect contemporary production with established dancefloor traditions. For DJs, Analog Dreams offers four different tools without losing its musical coherence. “Funky Lady” can provide an uplifting vocal and disco-inflected moment, while “Groovin’” offers a deeper instrumental alternative with saxophone. “All The People” is suited to more expansive vocal-house passages, and “Falldown” can provide a smoother transition into deeper or more disco-oriented material. For collectors, GCV043 is an attractive example of the contemporary revival of analogue-minded house production. The release does not rely solely on nostalgia; its appeal comes from the way classic musical ingredients are rebuilt through modern production and live instrumentation. That makes it relevant to listeners collecting Disco House, Soulful House, Nu Disco, Funky House and Jazzy House, as well as DJs looking for well-produced contemporary records with a strong connection to classic club culture. Micky More & Andy Tee – Analog Dreams EP is ultimately a celebration of house music as a physical and musical experience. Across four original productions, the duo combine analogue hardware, live instrumentation, vocals, piano, saxophone, disco references and carefully constructed grooves to create a record that feels warm without becoming retro, sophisticated without losing its dancefloor purpose, and contemporary without abandoning the musical traditions that shaped house music. As Groove Culture GCV043, Analog Dreams EP works equally well as a DJ record and as a statement of production philosophy. It is music built around groove, musicianship and texture — a four-track 12-inch that captures the enduring appeal of soulful, disco-driven house while giving those influences a distinctly modern vinyl expression.
