2020, 4×12″ LP, FXHE Records.

Those who’ve been paying close attention will know that Alex ‘Omar’ Smith has been mixing things up musically of late, veering away from the deep Detroit house he’s famed for in order to explore a wider range of influences. New album “You Want” doesn’t exactly reverse this trend, but it is far more rooted in his particular brand of seductive, off-kilter deepness and techno-tinged hypnotism than recent singles. That’s undeniably a good thing, because nobody does crunchy, machine driven club jams better than the Motor City producer. There are nods towards Italian style piano house, disco, broken beat, jazz funk, Masters at Work and – more surprisingly – industrial techno (see the filthy closing cut) – but the resultant cuts don’t sound like anything other than tried-and-tested Omar-S club jams. – Juno
