Brooklyn groove architect Bruno Bar returns to Beast River with a deep house EP that blends New York energy with soulful, modern warmth.
Bruno Bar returns to Beast River with Movin, a four-track EP built for dancers who want depth, mood and a touch of spiritual lift in the mix. It is a record that stands confidently in the deep house space, drawing on classic New York floor energy while keeping its polish firmly modern.
The title track is where the spark hits. Marie Berson’s whispered vocal slowly unfurls into a soulful hook that lands between gospel rise and the focused power of a drum-led peak moment. Bar builds around tight, punchy percussion and a warm low end, creating a groove that turns the floor without ever feeling overhyped. It is elegant and purposeful, a proper mid to peak-time tool for DJs who like their sets to move with class.
Tour-Maubourg reshapes Movin into a Balearic-leaning glide, softening the edges into Rhodes warmth, hazy strings and a rubbery bassline that stretches across the mix. This version feels designed for longer sets where the atmosphere needs to breathe, perfect for sunlit sessions or deeper club moments where you want the dancers to melt into the groove.
Feel The Dub digs further into the shadows. The bass steps forward, the drums get moodier and the vocal is reduced to subtle flickers at the edge of the rhythm. It is a stripped, functional and floor-focused dub that keeps the energy simmering while shifting the vibe into darker territory.
The EP signs off with U Can Dance 2 Jazz, a lively lift that introduces jazzy chords, a sharp sax lead and a garage-tinged swing. It adds a playful spark to the release and shows another side to Bar’s musicality, giving DJs a versatile closing tool.
Movin is a strong addition to the Beast River catalogue, offering a balanced set of cuts that work across different moments of the night. Depth, groove and craftsmanship throughout.
