First released way back in 1997, The Jazz Republic was one of the late, great Mike Huckaby's earliest EPs a sublime collection of hazy and warming Detroit deep house and techno jams tailor made for losing yourself in at four in the morning. Original vinyl copies have long been hard to come by on the second-hand market, so this 25th anniversary edition will be an essential purchase for many DJs. On the A-side, sumptuous, early morning deep house wonder 'The Jazz Republic' comes paired with the mind-altering, stargazing techno hypnotism of 'Jazz Delirium', while on the flip, the piano-smothered bumpin' loveliness of 'Groove Box' is followed by the driving, disco-sampling deep house loop jam 'The Stranger'. An impeccable classic!
