Info
Ltd Advance Promos:
Maintaining the pressure already set by the previous HENCH Mixtape Vol. 1 samplers, Jakes returns with a his familiar sub-destroying sound. Having already released a standout 12” on Hench in 2009, the Russian producers, Giant, provide us with a VIP of their biggest tune to date.
These tracks both feature on the HENCH Mixtape Vol. 1 (soon to be released). The compilation is to be mixed by Jakes and will feature unreleased tracks from Papa ‘ench himself. The release will also contain new exclusive tracks from Komonazmuk, Chasing Shadows, Lost and Giant, as well as providing a platform for debut releases on the label from Minus, Tek-one and Mensah.
A. JAKES - SCANNERZ
With each new tune that Jakes produces, his progression and intent is evermore obvious. No fooling about with this one – a ringing loop draws you in and then hits you with a monster drop. Low-end rushing through the woofers with rhythmic swiftness, feet will be stomping the ground and writhing to this bass-led beat. The occasional bell chime and futuristic lasers shooting –here’s a tune capable of tearing down any rave, no matter what size.
AA. GIANT – DRUMSTICK VIP
Maintaining the squeaking synths and vocoder present in the original ‘Drumstick’, Giant have gone back in on this one and turned out an even funkier, wobbly b-line number than before. The atmospheric synth and ragga piano stab demonstrate a standard of production usually attributed to more experienced producers. Yet Giant have managed to create a tune that oozes serious studio skills and fresh innovative ideas at the same time. It’s not every day that a debutant’s release on a label gets offered to do a VIP, but Giant have come up trumps.
