Iconic French label Kitsun\u00e9 continue to pack a potential punch with ‘House Kitsun\u00e9 America’, a brand new 6 track compilation featuring a clutch of hotly tipped, captivating stateside producers on the rise. 90s House Music has always been a huge inspiration for Kitsun\u00e9 Musique, influencing the club-culture roots the brand personifies till this day. Maison\u00a0Kitsun\u00e9\u2019s latest 2019 Fall \/ Winter collection paid a distinct homage to this era and Kitsun\u00e9 Musique decided to dedicate the label\u2019s annual American focused compilation as a celebration to this golden era. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Established in 2012, featuring a then-unknown Childish Gambino, the Kitsun\u00e9 America Compilation series\u00a0aims to take a fresh look at the North American music scene and the House Kitsun\u00e9 America is one very\u00a0special edition. The brief was simple, Kitsun\u00e9 Musique asked promising North American artists and producers to cover a classic 90\u2019s house track of their choice and the end product has been nothing short of spectacular.\u00a0<\/p>\n

House Kitsun\u00e9 America, a timeless tribute to the compilations of the past, gathers a selection of 6 covers that fits perfectly on vinyl, celebrating the format loved\u00a0and used by DJs at the time.<\/p>\n

‘The Whistle Song’ is very club-oriented and has that house vibe to it. I love the beat to it and as the song begins it has all different kind of tempos as it starts and then in the middle it has the higher tempo, perfect for the DJ’S so put their touch on it also.<\/p>\n

The track list is as follows:<\/p>\n

1. jarradcleof\u00e9\u00a0\u2013 Needin\u2019 U<\/p>\n
