Dutch imprint Outplay was conceived in 2012 by Fouk duo, Daniel Leseman & Junktion (Hans Peeman). Initially crated as a platform for their own productions, the sound focuses on the deeper side of house and disco. Outplay has had countless quality coups from Laurence Guy, Loz Goddard, Harry Wolfman, Cleanfield, Clive From Accounts and more recently Scruscru & Meowsn.
Junktion is from the South of the Netherlands, and he first burst onto the scene in 2013 on the now defunct Slow Town. Hes had outings on Times Are Ruff, Sleazy Beats, Razor-N-Tape, Rose Records, and Broken District, as well as his co-owned Outplay Records. As their prolific production duo Fouk grew to dizzy heights, Junktion took a back seat for a few, but he is back with a bang in 2021 with the first full Junktion release on Outplay since 2016 (Wide Awake), with four fresh cuts in the shape of the Tributes EP.
The A consists of two amped up disco house treatments with Just A Disco Thing and Real To Me. Stomping kicks and heavy bass merge together with lashings of disco goodness. Flip it over to a more introspective aspect, where Junktion comes to light in the form of the understated funkiness of I Got Somebody, followed up by the delicious and dreamy melodies of title cut Tribute.
Junktion says: Weve been playing most of these tracks while touring as Fouk to great effect and it feels so good to finally get these out there! Theyre a tribute to the scene and everybody who has supported my music.//
