YES DOCTOR

Australia's left-field club renaissance keeps flowering, and Horatio Luna's cult 2020 debut 'Yes Doctor' remains an essential root document. The LP welds dub-soaked bass pressure, broken-beat jack, and smoky nu-jazz improv onto a house chassis-picture Moodymann deep cuts drifting through Dadawah's spiritual haze. Championed by Gilles Peterson after Luna appeared on Brownswood's 'Sunny Side Up' compilation-where drummer Phil Stroud and synth maestro Dufresne also featured-the record was pieced together across 2019 during a run of late-night sessions while Hicks was living in the La Sape house. La Sape's brand-new 2025 pressing uses freshly cut plates and presents the full ten-track program on 140 g black vinyl. The package features subtle touch-ups to the jacket artwork and refreshed center-label stickers while preserving the original aesthetic. 'Yes Doctor' is my coming-of-age-mixing every style I could think of into house, pushing aesthetic boundaries, making 'un-boxable' music,' Luna says. File next to Theo Parrish and Yesterday's New Quintet: DJs will lock onto the title track's seven-minute bruk workout, while deep-listening customers will cherish the front-to-back journey in groove alchemy.
