Mixerr Album Reviews #1,799

The Nyce & Slo single is one of Lil Louis’ lesser known singles from his extensive discography that had not received as much airplay underground or mainstream. Regardless of popularity, his fans more or less slept on this single of his. This single has 4 mixes of the song Nyce & Slo.

Nyce & Slo uses a repetitive house soundscape. The song’s tempo transitions from downtempo to mid tempo pretty quick. Tempo transitions back and forth from downtempo to mid tempo and back downtempo. The song had people acting wild and crazy on the dance floor in not just Chicago, but in other countries across the globe. Nyce & Slo is a fine example of Chicago house. Of course Nyce & Slo is a very sexual song and a straight club banger!

The repetitive nature of this song many annoy listeners and detract them away from listening to this song entirely. Of course this might cause listeners to skip the song completely which is understandable.

Tony Humphrey co-produced this song with Lil Louis in 1989 just before the release of his debut album. Peter Black is the person playing the piano and Lil Louis is in charge of the vocals.

Vocals change as well as frequency is changed throughout the song. The woman’s voice who is saying “Boy boy boy” is soon muffled over by Lil Louis saying “okay okay okay”. This is because Lil Louis and Tony Humphrey were trying to give us a futuristic electronic experience with club music. The bass line is muffled pretty cleverly.
