Indurain - Spirits (Heavy Dub)

 Bought this one online blind and pumped to have a deep, bongo laden dub cut to share.


Indurain was a French house group that produced a few vocal, offbeat tracks and a singular, self-titled album from 1993, members of the group also contributed to the French scene under various other aliases and groups.


First got into looking into Indurain through them having a track on the now sought after Paris Union Recording compilation, looking through their releases and listening to their album. Big tip for Falling in Love off that release, a kind of street soul house jam reminiscent of  Toyin Agbetu's work on Intrigue records.


Spirits was also on the album and the original version is charmingly obscure and intriguing in its own right. But the Heavy Dub, luckily for me, chopped up the vocal, brought in some beautiful pads and seems to typify the playfulness and experimentalism of house music in the early 90s.


Enjoy!
