alton miller: reflections within ep
Detroit House legend Alton Miller returns to Mister Bear Records with the aptly titled Reflections Within EP. Building on the positive vibes of his earlier Am Forplay release, this record offers a fresh and breezy exploration of Miller's signature sound. Playin a pivotal role in developing the Motor City’s house music scene, showcased in his running of the seminal Music Institute night club alongside fellow illumainares Chez Damier and George Baker, Miller’s productions would start making their way into the world during the 90s, where his soulful musical upbringing had a big influence on the strand of House he would go on to be so celebrated for. His musical recipe and approach has seen him continue to release music at a steady pace, a testament to his ability and long reaching influence on dance music as a whole - with releases on Planet E, Mahogani Music, Neroli, Forbidden Dance and M3, to name but a few.
Reflections Within EP continues with the positive undertones and breezy, euphoric melodies that have been cornerstones of Miller’s sound for decades. The record is, as always, exceptionally balanced, with a mergence of his signature house style with tracks which feature the wondrous vocal abilities of Giinga Flame - providing an enriching and all encompassing experience. This is another testament to Miller's enduring influence – a record filled with expert production, uplifting melodies, and infectious grooves. Available on vinyl.
