Tornado Wallace delivers Left At Sunset on Running Back, a three-track EP that captures the tender transition from night to day in the electronic world. Asahi Ga Yondeiru opens with Courtney Bailey’s gentle vocal leading the way, drawing listeners into a space of quiet reflection after hours of relentless dancing. Left At Sunset follows, embodying that suspended moment when the club lights dim and morning light creeps in, while Plasticine rounds out the package with its warm, lingering pull that keeps the energy alive in a subtle, heartfelt manner.
Running Back stands as a cornerstone label in the house and disco revival, founded by Gerd Janson with a sharp focus on quality over quantity, consistently spotlighting artists who blend classic influences with fresh underground appeal. This release fits seamlessly into their catalog, showcasing Tornado Wallace’s ability to craft tracks that resonate deeply with DJs and fans who live for those emotional closing sets. The EP pulses with an intimate energy, highlighting the artist’s knack for evoking the fragile glow of post-club euphoria without ever losing its dancefloor edge.
Each track builds on the last, creating a narrative arc that feels personal yet universally relatable for anyone immersed in house culture. Courtney Bailey’s contribution on the lead track adds a human touch, grounding the music in real emotion that elevates it beyond standard fare. Tornado Wallace proves once again why he remains a go-to for selectors seeking pieces that bridge peak-time intensity with dawn’s quiet promise. This is underground house at its most evocative, tailored for those late hours when the crowd thins but the connection deepens.
DJs will appreciate how these cuts slot into sets needing that perfect wind-down or unexpected lift, their underground appeal lying in their refusal to chase trends. Left At Sunset reaffirms Running Back’s reputation for unearthing music that sticks with you, long after the night fades.
