I went through a period of buying loads of “crunk” (stupid name) hip hop a few years back, mainly due to me thinking that Lil Jon was pretty funny. I started out hating it but then grew to love the simple beats and rubbish lyrics. It’s wicked party music that doesn’t take itself too serious. Well, I hope not anyway.
This was produced by Lil Jon and was a pretty big tune back in 2002 when it came out. The drop at 0:45 always used to smash it for me. I feel the need for a lot more hip hop on here in the near future and reminds me I should really dig out my vinyl at some point.
Absolutely beautiful track by a true old skool legend, The Invisible Man. The original, released back in ’93 on Timeless was a killer tune but with the ’94 refix Mr Mew took the track on a more chilled vibe. The pads, vocals and piano all together from around 2:00 onwards is simply divine and when it all drops out at 4:05 it’s pure goose bumps!
I’m a big fan of a lot of D1’s tunes. Alongside the more traditional dubstep stuff (which isn’t really my cup of tea) he’s made some wicked melodic stuff. This new one from wobble master and Dub Police bossman Caspa is a wicked track. Lovely synth lines and growling bassline perfectly matched, I reckon this one is gonna be big!
There seems to be a Brackles remix of everything at the moment and for good reason too. He’s been putting out some blinding singles along with a whole host of deadly remixes for a while now. You can check out the original tune here but I think the remix sounds way more lovely.
