Hayley Parsons - Class Act - 05 Dec 2011

Class Act is a refreshing, uplifting piece of quality house music from rising star Hayley Parsons.
The first thing that grabs you about this track is the groove,
nice tight percussion and hints of bongo sit perfectly over a
bubbly bass and subtle synth stabs. The captivating hook of the
female vocal harmonies give the track a real depth and definitely
makes the listeners prick up their ears. In the first breakdown we
are introduced to the flutes and a brass section which create a
very catchy and unique riff. In today's current dance world where
processed production and pre-programmed plug-ins feature
prominently in our music, to hear these instruments in their raw
and natural beauty is a refreshing treat to the ears - it can't
help but put a smile on your face as you hum along. Combining this
with the addictive groove, sweet vocal harmonies and great
attention to detail in this track, you have a refreshing piece of
house music on your hands which truly is a Class Act.
For those of you who like your house music a little tougher, Tobie
Allen and Tim Cullen's remix definitely adds more chunk to the
funk. Riding high on the back of the success of We Lost The Moon on
Bootleg (support from David Guetta, Sister Bliss, Roger Sanchez and
Eddie Halliwell) and recent gigs alongside Laidback Luke and the
Toolroom Knights, the boys add a driving bassline, energetic
percussion and a monster breakdown which capably takes Class Act
into peaktime territory.
