Contrafact is excited to welcome back Dutch icon and studio wizard, Orlando Voorn, who brings a fresh new sound with his second contribution to the label – a double vinyl album entitled ‘The Master 2’, and a collection of laid-back jazzy house heaters with Orlando Voorn’s trademark sci-fi touch, stamped all over it.

Voorn’s career kicked off in the 80s and he has been widely recognised as a genius producer. Having spent years living in Detroit working with the like of Juan Atkins and his Metropolis Records, and with Kevin Saunderson on KMS, he made music under many other monikers and has delivered releases in many styles, mostly known for his multi storied, Detroit tinged, deep house and techno records.

On this long player we see Orlando delivering an album that flips the switch, moving through different shades of jazzy house, soulful funk, but still very much in Detroit zone. It’s an infectious mix of debonair soul and hi-tech jazzism injected with Voorn’s versatile palette of deep dynamics, next-level machine talk and otherworldly funk

Staying true to the velveteen house vibrations that’ve been the driving force to his seminal records through nearly three decades of mythology, Voorn drops a textbook sample of his lush and unhindered vision for innovative and soul inspiring music. This album rolls up its sleeves and pulls out a potent artillery of foot shuffling jazzy house beats, intricate drum work, and some bleached-out synths that will wash away all those the winter blues.
