Step Your Fresh Up Friday

Weekend where are you?  Well, only a few hours away and we'll get it in before then to set it off with a boom, a bang, and maybe even a whoosh or two.



First up is a big breaks release, "The Theme" on Groundlevel from Andy McAllister also featuring a remix by DJ Hero.  Appropriately named, the intro has a great brass sample that sounds like it's from a 70s TV show that slams into a deep bass heavy break!  Developing into a jukey beat with some funky stabs and a hint of that brass it's lookin' hot!  The DJ Hero remix is a standard issue club floor destroyer with effected out vocal samples and a driving breakbeat with a dash vibrato/wobble back into a glitched out brass loop.  The drop hits hard with a heavily modulated synth and stabs of the brass.  Delicious all the way through, check it and it just may even make it into your weekend set by surprise.  There's also a FREE surprise from Andy that's a house classic spun around in a whole new breaky direction.

We all know Kick It here in the breaks community and I'm a huge fan but this latest work from Farace is through the roof on the electro tip.  A super clean complextro banger, Get Up Jax has a catchy saw lead and a heavy bassline on deck.  With only a teaser up at the moment I can't WAIT for the release to drop.  The Bass mix takes it to a whole 'nother level on the drumstep front of things.  Huge drum fills and a journey into the amen break get this grinder of a tune goin' from the floor up.  The epic piano brings it from the grave to the rave and back again.  This release will be BIG...even an acoustic version on the tubes for you straight from Paul himself!

For some hometown hotness from Cincinnati, OH DJ/MC Firecat 451 goes big with a liquid DnB remix of A Tribe Called Quest - Stressed Out.  There's not many people that I would say could do a great job with this, but I knew when I heard him announce it that this was going to hit it right.  With solid rolling basslines and a breakdown into hip hop it's bangin' it out.  Liquid dnb always makes me feel like it's really fall and I have to say this pulls it in for me just the way I like it.  Check the rest of Firecat's tunes/mixes on his site www.firecat451.com
