BACK IN THE DAYS (2026 REPRESS VINYL)

COEO are to the Toy Tonics label what Masters at Work were to '90s house; they bring soul to house music. Back in the Days could have been made in 1997 by Sneak, Dimitri from Paris, or Lil Louis. But similarities to Berlin's sample house scene and artists like Max Graef and Hodini are also evident. COEO's hit Native Riddim, released digitally in 2014 and included here as a vinyl-only bonus, features some heavy jazz samples from COEO's parents' soul collection. It was number-one in the Traxsource charts for several weeks and has impressed everyone from Laurent Garnier to Tensnake.
