Alex Israel: Penithboid – BMR05

While Dennis’ remix is what I would call the very definition of a solid remix of high quality, I have to say that the Original mix is top-notch.
-Derek Plaslaiko

Beretta is well known as a springboard for exposing some of the best new talent to emerge from Detroit. The label has helped shape the careers of artists like Seth Troxler, Ryan Crosson, Luke Hess, and many others.. Once again, Beretta brings another new Detroit artist to the forefront who will surely be a name to look out for in the next few years..

Hot on the heels of the acclaimed “Red House EP,” Beretta Red presents a new Detroit artist and new EP titled, “Penithboid” by Detroit’s Alex Israel . Growing up in the backyard of the motor city, Israel was fortunate enough to be within earshot of the thriving detroit techno community. He began producing music as a hobby quietly in 2004 and 5 years later, he has now honed his craft and begun to share his music for the world to hear. With “Penithboid”, Alex delivers a beautiful re-intepretation of Melodic Detroit house, with a shimmering vibraphone lead, funky intelligent percussion, old school house piano riffs, all wrapped around a dirty growling bassline to really get the floor moving. Detroit-Native Dennis DeSantis (Kanzleramt/Third Ear/Thinner) steps in to deliver an epic remix. The vibe is kept mellow at first, but quickly transforms into dancefloor groover. It’s the perfect first track for any DJ Set.
