Cat.#: VIS-015
Released in 2004.

JT Donaldson can do no wrong in the house world at the moment, and he keeps his success streak intact here with a new release for Vista. "Vanguard Nights" sees JT showing his love of old school house, with this very Chitown outing jackin the beats, stabbing the synths, and letting that deep and dubby bassline work its magic in fine style, while spacey effects swirl in and out of the mix before a jazzy drop of drums, stand-up bass and horns takes the track off to higher ground. Tougher than his usual gear, but then that s what makes Donaldson a cut above. On the flip, "Let It Ride" is a thumping yet deep late night houser, with one of those sexy breathy vocal snippets, along with sultry chords, solid rhythms and percussion, and a funky bassline groove. Last up is "Go Beats!", which as the title suggests sees JT laying down some funky drum patterns that any pro jock will be gagging to have in his box Essential TRACKS Vanguard Nights/ Let It Ride/ Go Beats!
