If you could listen to one last tune...

Toko Records holds a very special place in untitledmusic history. I owe a massive thanks to Alec Greenhough, who along with Paul Ingall established Toko Records way back in 1994. Whilst Alec did his rounds with Global Distribution he used to distribute bundles of copies of the then printed, untitledmusic fanzine - and so a friendship was born.

The label was the home of people like Attaboy (aka Alec and Si Brad), Mettle Music (who later went on to establish his own label, Klarky Kat, Violet Trax, Pat Barry, Rubato and of course Weekender.

Released in 2001 as Toko's 24th release the four track single was everything you'd come to expect of Alex Moran and Simon Bradshaw (Si Brad). Moran had been a favourite of mine on Glasgow Underground (what a label!) and Si, well was fast becoming Mr Deep House, recording under Attaboy, Cine City, House of 909, Salt City Orchestra, Paper Music, Rubato, Wastepaper, Departure Lounge and Weekender. Si's catalogue covers almost all the labels I used to hoard; Paperecordings, Pagan, Alola, Urban Torque, Tribal and more.

Sunday Session was the tune myself and UM cohort Phil Carr played every weekend at our Sunday Republic gigs and so the love for the tune has remained - reminding me of the days when deep house was so new very few people we're into it and they nodded in sync as we educated them in the finest deep house the UK had to offer.

Some time later I picked up a white label of the release which had the vocal version with Zoe Johnston on it. The Nottinghamshire singer-songwriter, perhaps more famous for her work with Neon Heights adds a wonderful edge to the tune!

When I upped sticks and move to the other side of the world I'm pleased to say both copies of this came with me and still sound as soothingly classy today as they did back then in Bar Cuba!
