We are truly honored to welcome Toronto's Stuart Li in the Room With A View family with this monster 3 tracker.

It has been years I'm tracking every move of the man since his early steps on John Kong's Jazz flavoured Do Right imprint or his first EP's on other Canadian homes of quality as Iwanai and Left Of The Dial till his recent spectacular appearances on Dolly and Crème Organisation.

Stuart teased the interest of some of the most prestigious A&R's of the leftfield electronic scene : Paris' Versatile, Stuttgart's Philpot, Tokyo's Mule or Berlin's Ostgut Ton have all been charmed by his unique signature deeply connected with the original sound of classic labels as Trax, DJ International, KMS, Nervous, Strictly Rhythm & Nu Groove...

It happened quite naturally that Stuart's hybrid, futuristic & rooted work found his way through the RWAV cosmos and these 3 tracks have been shaped & selected carefully to represent closely this highly personal sound travel between past, present & future.

* “Even though this ep is not as close to my stuff as most of all the other rwav releases i feel the rare soulful attitude behind these traxx. especially “in the trunk” and “midnight ridim” teach and preach in a very sym.path.iq way. if more producers would add some these ingredients to their tunes i would like “techno” in general way more”
