Following 2014’s critically acclaimed anthology, Defected presents House Masters -Masters At Work Volume Two is a second landmark collection of 40 original tracks and remixes from the most remarkable discography in house music. Masters At Work, the ground-breaking project of Louie Vega and Kenny Dope, created a musical legacy that will last forever. Taking the distinct and already highly praised production aesthetic of Vega and fusing it with Gonzalez's encyclopaedic knowledge of breaks and hip-hop, they crafted an accessible yet defiantly underground sound that is still being copied and referenced – but crucially never bettered – by many of today’s contemporary producers. The sheer scale and quality of the Masters At Work catalogue means that a single volume, even one that spans four CDs, doesn’t fully do it justice. This new collection digs even deeper into the MAW vaults, unearthing rare cuts and forgotten gems that even the most ardent fan may have previously overlooked. In fact, so elusive are some of the tracks included here that the masters had to be sourced directly from Louie and Kenny in order for them to be released on CD and digitally for the very first time. Defected presents House Masters - Masters At Work Volume Two further demonstrates the versatility of the duo’s productions. While Volume 1 focussed on the more club-ready cuts, this latest collection presents even more of the looser, downtempo vibes in which they frequently experimented and always excelled. Masters At Work have always operated according to their own rules and their own sound. Whether it's the sampling techniques of hip-hop, the swing of Latin styles or the soulful euphoria of house, they've always added their own special ingredients. This is what makes Masters At Work genuine dance music legends, and makes Defected presents House Masters - Masters At Work Volume Two such an essential collection.
