Update : Here’s the scanned in version (with additional reviews from Bensun), and the readable version is here
Blind – Cut & Run – Crisp Biscuits – First up is another killer remix from the kings of booty breaks. Cut & Run might be a little bit naughty, but they’ve made 2 of the biggest crowd pleasers in my box, and pleased many a dancefloor with their cheekiness. This one samples one of my favourite Streets tracks, with a beautiful break down, nice buildup and the trademark cut & run nu-skool heaviness.
Stanton Warriors – Shifting Gears – Plump Djs – Finger Licking – Staying on the more party breaks end of the spectrum we’ve got this remix from the Stantons. Its got a great vocal, and those trademark stanton style beats, basslines, and noise.. It might not be breaking barriers, but it is done very well.
Western Soul (Groove Diggers Remix) – Parker – Rocstar – Lee (Cut la Roc) sent this promo a while ago and it has its big release back in May, but as i wasn’t reviewing back then i thought i’d best get in quick. Probably my favourite out of the many Parker remixes, and definitely one of my favourite groove diggers remixes to date, this one build up all the way through, dropping some great techno style sounds, with a nice use of the 303 acid noise, whilst still keeping that funky breaks roll.
Loose Caboose (Bassbin Twins Remix) – The Electroliners – Twitch – This weeks classic breaks track is from 1993, and takes you back as soon as as you hear it, with its 303 acid noises, old school beats, snare rolls and horns. Reminds me of the old Raves, and early Que Club days and so one i’ll most definitly be dropping at the Atomic Jam que club return next month.
Braveheart Breaks (Scratch Record) – Dj Ritchie Rufftone – And finally this weeks “not strictly breaks track” is my first scratch record i recently bought from Jibbering. With plenty of sounds and those essential standard scratch noises, but done in an intuitive way, this is one piece of vinyl i’m trying to play with every day. Great for anyone who is getting into their scratching.
