DJ MAGAZINE HYPE CHART / (COLUMN) ONLY FOR DJ’S (FRANCE)
RADIO FG - BEST OF DJS CHART (PANELLIST)
1 HERVÉ
/ CHEAP THRILLS / LAIDBACK LUKE / ARMAND VAN HELDEN / DATA
Along with the glitchy and twitchy original, Laidback Luke’s
uplifting and psychotic switch back ride and Armand Van Helden’s
slap around the chops with a titanium gauntlet make this Jacko inspired
crowd-pleaser a real thrill at any price.
2 CROOKERS / MAD SKILLS EP / MAGIC BUS / SOUTHERN FRIED
check magic bus for a psychedlic, pistol cocked, tabla drummed,
right old rave up and ‘mad kidz’ for a b*tch slap and
foot stomp attack.
3 STEPHAN & GLEADHALL VS FIERCE RULIN DIVA / PHREEKN / ORIGINAL
/ ACCORSI / CHUMBOMUNDO
Phreeek your body to the original mix’s wonky, wobbly bassline
and you’ll be transported to the nearest podium. Accorsi breaks
out the heavy tech bazookas and blows it out of orbit. The whole
package is fierce and phat, so get used to it.
4 DARREN EMERSON / CRASH JACK / ORIGINAL / GLOBAL UNDERGROUND
If this is the comeback then long will Emerson reign. This is ginormous
and embarrassingly well hung – please put it out to stud and
make more, more, more…
5 THE VERVE / LOVE IS NOISE / TOM NEVILLE’S NOISY LOVER /
PARLOPHONE
Neville’s Noisy Lover mixes get the balance just right creating
a hard-to-follow, vocal scene-stealer that works: play this and
p*ss off the dj who’s due to follow you…
6 SHARAM / GET WILD / ORIGINAL / YOSHITOSHI
You got body. You got style. You got body. Let’s Get wild.
10 minutes of unadulterated fun.
7 SURKIN / WHITE KNIGHT TWO / LAIDBACK LUKE / INSTITUBES
Laidback Luke destroys the floor with a hi-octane, electro workout
complete with an old skool piano techno/ house breakdown.
8 BROWN & SLIM / YOU KNOW WHAT’S UP / SLIM RE-EDIT / CR2
Mix a hip-hop attitude, a rolling electro bass, ticklish, teasing
effects and a breakdown that soars out of the stratosphere to give
a moment so deliciously peak-time that it hurts.
9 PRESETS / TALK LIKE THAT / DAVE SPOON / MODULAR
The wonderful Presets return wearing a glamorous Dave Spoon twinset,
busy beats, a phat farting bassline and vocals that are nipped,
tucked and expanded in all the right places.
10 FOREMOST POETS / MOONRAKER / SLEAZY G / NRK
Please do not be alarmed, remain calm… Sleazy G updates the
Foremost Poet’s house classic with a bass heavy attack that
Ed Kane / Swen Weber / Bart B More fans will dribble over like dogs
on heat…
11 TONKA / ORCA / ORIGINAL / DUB / GREAT STUFF
This insistent groove does not let up and should be charged for
aural assault with a deadly weapon. Criminally good.
12 STEVE MAC / PADDY’S THEME / ORIGINAL / 3 BEAT BLUE
With its fiddles upfront, this could well be considered the irish
jig answer to Samim’s ‘Heater’ and happily it’s
just as good a craik.
13 SHINICHI OSAWA / STAR GUITAR / STREETLIFE DJS / JAPANESE POPSTARS
/ DATA
The Chemical Brothers ‘you should feel what I feel, take what
I take’ classic is taken on a white knuckle, bug splattered
ride on a runaway Harley Davidson by the Streetlife DJs.
14 YUKSEK / I LIKE TO PLAY / ORIGINAL / SOUND OF BARCLAY
This has got an infectious, aggressive, radio interference, distressed
disco groove that makes you feel like you’re treading electrified
grapes. A cheeky little vintage.
15 TIGA & ZYNTHERIUS / SUNGLASSES AT NIGHT / DIM / TURBO
The DIM remix brings this club classic bang up to date with his
trademark snipped and clipped vocal loops, growling, organ-contracting
bassline and pulverising beats. |

DJ MAGAZINE HYPE CHART / (COLUMN) ONLY FOR DJ’S (FRANCE)
RADIO FG - BEST OF DJS CHART (PANELLIST)
1 Martin Solveig
/ I Want You / Laidback Luke / Mixture
This got the biggest cheer and hands in the air approval in Stockholm
and Paris. It’s an anthemic stripped down vocal from Laidback
Luke and another hit for Martin Solveig.
2 Adele / Hometown Glory / Axwell Re-Mode / XL
Axwell excels himself with a grungey, electro soul re-rub of the
highest order. Put simply it’s a beautifully haunting showstopper
and a credit to this platinum selling artist.
3 Max Linen / Neon Lights / Sandy Vee / Phonetic
I do love a sing along karaoke moment and with lyrics like these
it would be rude not to join in. Sandy Vee rocks it in a fine, crossover
style – definitely a producer to watch.
4 Shapeshifters / Chime / Martjin Ten Velden / Nocturnal Groove
/ Defected
MTV’s maximal pumping arrangement, percolating effects and
glacial keys and revelatory breakdown surge with an intensity that
would make a baby monkey’s hair stand on end. Pure class.
5 Jon Cutler / It’s Yours / Bart B More Deep Down Dub / Defected
This is a classic Bart B More battle weapon: off key and off kilter
synth loops, lots of hissing white noise, a nagging vocal and a
killer groove, and it’s all yours!
6 Alan Braxe Feat Killa Kella And Fallon / Nightwatcher (Show Me)
/ Senghore’s Who Watches The Watchmen / Eye Industries
Senghore’s sticky remix makes you feel like you’ve fallen
face first in a bees nest whilst covered in honey and this Brake
/ Kella / Fallon / Senghore co-production is highly addictive.
7 Dave Spoon / 1988 Ep / 1988 / Liability / Toolroom
1988 is a rubber drummed, locked bassline and swelling synth raver
that tickles the feet of everyone within an inch of the dancefloor.
Liabillity is harder, darker and all about the ¾ switches
and tricky jazz drum breaks.
8 Style Of Eye / Grounded / Main / Nero
If you like Dirty Bird, Claude Von Stroke or the Martinez Brothers
you will love this. It’s raw, funky, pumping, completely mental
and is all about the baritone Bizet /Carmen vocal.
9 Inhaler Feat Christian Burns / Something about You / My Digital
Enemy / Data
Ex BB Mak vocalist Christian Burns’s new outfit ‘Inhaler’
tear it up with a banging, spot-on prog-pop My Digital Enemy remix.
Could easily be yet another hit for Data.
10 Salt City Orchestra / The Book / Magik Johnson / Paperecordings
As revamped house classics go, this is a must have. IMagik Johnson’s
remix is dirtier than a week down a coalmine, makes you feel used
and abused and is all the better for it.
11 Various / Great Summer Games Stuff / Weber / Angello / Great
Stuff
Lots to choose from on this varied double album – most of
it falls in the minimal camp but these two work well on electro
tech house floors.
12 Mason / The Ridge / Original / Great Stuff
Fans of all things Pryda will lap this brooding, epic excursion
up like Dracula in a blood bank.
13 Don Rimini / Kick & Run Ep / Rave On / Hools / Mental Groove
The godfather of the dancefloor, the booty puncher, the Don Ri-mi-ni
delivers an EP of deliciously distressed synth rave that kicks ass
and takes no prisoners.
14 Mark Brown / New Heights / Original / Cr2
Mark Brown goes solo and maximal and shines a bright light on his
darker electro-tech side. Good remix also from Gold Ryan.
15 Brighton Port Authority featuring David Byrne and Dizzee Rascal
/ Toe Jam / Micky Slim / Skint
‘Toe Jam’s radio mix is a f**g perfect, Norman Cook
pop hit then Micky Slim takes us to the centre of the earth with
this breaks heavy, hammer hard, whirling, volcanic club mix. |

RADIO FG - BEST OF DJS CHART (PANELLIST)
1 Laidback Luke & Tom Stephan / Show / Tom De Neef / Bart B More / Stealth
Drama. Pure drama. Laidback Luke and Tom Stephan rework the Romanthony classic. Tom De Neef makes it nast Can only be compared to wearing wet clothes and a metal wig in an electrical storm.
2 Zoo Brazil / Can You See It / Myers & Allberg / Joia
Trance electro with a big, fat, roling beat, plenty of white noise and loads of sexy, spoken vocal drama.
3 David Guetta / Jack Is Back / Main / FMIF CD promo
I have been road-testing this acid house for months now and no matter where I play it, it kicks ass: it’s nothing like the David Guetta productions you know yet, true to form, it is a monster.
4 Chab feat JD David / Closer to Me / Phonjaxx / Azuli
This is a fabulous, in your face remix of the maudlin Chab original, which fully embraces the air guitars and gives it a tough electro heart. Scary stuff.
5 Jean Elan / Where’s Your Head At / Original / Shake Me Please
The Basement Jaxx classic is now as commercial as an inner city shopping centre but is also as indisputably catchy as a bout of measles in a primary school. I say it’s a hit.
6 Sander Van Doorn / Apple / Bart B More / Doorn Recs
If you like warped and wonky electro house instrumentals with a kick drum that could snap your leg in two look no further.
7 Filthy Rich, Ed Kane & Will Bailey / It’s about time / Original / Control Freq
Hold it…. With a little bit of hip-hop, a dash of breaks and plenty of house, this blistering, percolating bassline groove will definitely please Crookers / Fake Blood / Sinden / Mickey Slim fans.
8 Zoo Brazil / Behind Eyes / Main / Joia
This is a twister, so enjoy having your mind stomped all over by the beats, bent out of shape by the synths and gently put back together again by the trance-y, sunset melody.
9 Black Ghosts / Repetition Kills You / Laidback Luke / Southern Fried
‘It’s all about compressing the bottom end’ said the sumo elephant to his flattened opponent. Laidback Luke goes acieeeeeeeed for miles of smiles.
10 Felix Da Housecat / Tweak / Extended / WoS / PIAS
Bring that shit back… This is flares-wearing, mac daddy, pimped up, spoken word, glam synth-rock that makes for a great end of the night record.
11 X-press 2 / Smoke Machine / James Talk / Skint
James Talk’s smooth talking, less psychotic re-rub rolls, buffs and polishes Xpress 2’s manic mid-noughties club classic so you can see everybody’s smiling face in it.
12 Danny Tenaglia / Space Dance / Terrace Vocalism / Tommy Boy
With an arrangement that builds like a skyscraper: noises and effects that fly like lost UFOs in, around and through the arrangement and a vocal reminiscent of Yello’s The Race, this is simply one of the best produced records around.
13 Cirez D / The Journey / Original / Mouseville
This simple loop needs a tougher remix for peak time main floors but since this is it in all its maximal glory repeat to fade, this is a journey … this is a journey
14 Tommie Sunshine / Limit of Your Mind / New Original / Alphabet City
Don’t let the laidback hi nrg vocal intro fool you, this mutates into a fully charged, death disco romp of the highest order.
15 Todd Terry All Stars featuring Tara Mc Donald / Get Down / Mousse T’s Shizznizz Dub / Strictly Rhythm / Defected
This atmospheric, glacial synth outing sets the scene beautifully and is a welcomed return to the fray from Mousse T. Perfect for early or afterhours play.

RADIO FG - BEST OF DJS CHART (PANELLIST)
1 Chromeo / Fancy Footwork / Laidback Luke / Backyard / V2
It’s the clubber’s anthem and it’s so much fun that it has to take pole position but do not be deceived by its pop fizz, the sirens slice it all to ribbons with a rusty razor.
2 Fedde Le Grand / Three Minutes To Explain Myself / Original / Data
A dark and rushy peak time moment with a vocal chant that has everybody earning their karaoke stripes. Rne Amezs tries hard but the original is best.
3 Laidback Luke & Tom Stephan / Show / Original / Stealth
Drama. Pure drama. Laidback Luke and Tom Stephan rework the Romanthony classic. Can only be compared to wearing wet clothes and a metal wig in an electrical storm.
4 Dj Jeroenski / Back Once Again / Lee Mortimer / Cr2
Yee hah, secure all loose body parts and prepare to bungee from the top of the Eiiffel Tower completely naked. It’s what elastics are made out of and for.
5 Underworld / Ring Road / Laidback Luke / Fake Blood / Underworldlive.Com
Laidback Luke hits another home run with this fierce drummed, ambient dreamscape. Enough is never enough. Fake Blood go retro classic house / uk garage mash-up.
6 John Dahlback / Pyramid / Dirty South / Cr2
Dragan adds a complex techno rhythm section and discordant piano chords to this sublime instrumental and creates an urgent call to the dancefloor.
7 Ali Payami / Pictures / Main / Just For Fun
Ali Payami proves that there are better things to come out of Sweden than Ikea. Think Pryda on steroids with a glowstick up his butt.
8 K-Klass / Getting Ready / Micky Slim / CD promo
Micky Slim is leading the way to this month’s secret rave but don’t be deterred by the sweet pianos and vocals as the bassline is sharp enough to cut power lines.
9 Kid Carpet / I Don’t Want To Fall In Love With You / Loose Cannons / Sunday Best
If you like your rock dirty and electric and your punk aggressive and brash, Loose Cannons deliver but with enough nutty noises and levity to light the way home.
10 Static Revenger / Satellite / Scumfrog / Sutil
Scumfrog fashions this reflective indie-pop vocal into a swooping and circling, distortion heavy, synth vulture.
11 Fake Blood / Mars EP / Mars / Blood Splashing / Cheap Thrills
Welcome to Fake Blood’s world of break beats, hip-house, acid bleeps, mc raps, rave sensibilities, whiplash beats, discomforting stops and filthy, dirty basslines. I heart Fake Blood.
12 Moby / I Love To Move In Here / Crookers Bass In Here / Mute
Approach with caution, this is more nu rave from those mad Italians that bubbles and spits like Mount Etna.
13 Zoo Brazil / Kalle Ep / Take On You / Kalle / Joia
With its funky Casanova bassline, steamy white noise and shimmering glacial keys, ‘Take On You’ takes you on, and wins. Kalle is the louder, harder, quickie equivalent.
14 Lazy Jay / Tomahawk / Main / Big & Dirty Recs
Wait for the Hitchcock low flying crop duster moments and then revel in the warped electro synth workouts that follow.
15 Shapeshifters / Chime / Main / Nocturnal Groove / Defected
Orbital’s atmospheric ambient hit, Chime is revisited in a well earthed and solid, acid-lite house style and emerges once more as the perfect end of the night record.

1 Benny Benassi
/ I am not drunk / Extended / pump-kin / D:Vision
This is a show-stopping screamer that’s perfect for anyone
who agrees with the lyric ‘I am not drunk … enough!’
2 TV Rocks / It’s been a long time / Laidback Luke / CD-R
Promo
This is an anthem waiting to happen. Memorable lyrics, a strong
vocal and an instrumental that steams itself silly in Laidback Luke’s
hot, heavy and hissing Hammam.
3 Stuffa & Andy ft Mapei / Pretty girls / Sinden / Trunkfunk
Drama, doubt and daring head to the dancefloor with ‘Pretty
Girls’s dynamic arrangement, Bollywood strings, bitchy vocal
and transformed and compressed fairground organ hook. It shouldn’t
work at all but it really does!
4 David Vendetta / Hold That Sucker Down / Cosa Nostra / Paradise
Vendetta’s Cosa Nostra reworking of the OT Quartet’s
‘Hold That Sucker Down’ tears the roof off by using
The Egg’s ‘Walking Away’ beats and sounds and
a scene-stealing breakdown that gives me goosebumps every time.
Class.
5 Richard Grey / Massive / Original / CD-R Promo
‘Massive’ can only be the estranged result of an orgy
between all of James Holden’s Border Community whilst on mushrooms,
angel dust, crack and steroids.
6 Lil Mo Ying Yang / Reach / TV Rocks / Mark Knight / Strictly Rhythm
It’s all about the percussion, the almost unbearable effects
and the bouncing metallic bassline here as TV Rocks hammer out another
hit. Mark Knight’s brooding remix is terrace bound.
7 John Dahlback & Arno Cost / Golden walls / Original / Nero
If you close your eyes, this could be a Jaguar remix but when you
open your ears the beats slap you with a white whale. It succeeds
where Jaguar failed.
8 John Dahlback / Hustle up / Albin Myers / Joia
New pretender to the Swedish throne, Albin Myers beefs up Dahlback’s
religious-sounding, trance epiphany with a nasty kick, lots of white
noise and a picnicking plague of locusts .
9 David Tort & Ruff feat Sasha / Sex, Drugs and Rock N Roll
/ Original / CD-R promo
There isn’t a tape measure long enough to measure the muscles
flexed by the bassline of this track and there isn’t a weighing
scale big enough to weigh it. Heavy shit.
10 Goodwill & Tommy Trash / It’s a Swede Thing / Tommy
Trash / Cr2
Am happy to welcome back my old Hussle favourite since it returns
with stunning new remixes from Tommy Trash and Dabruck and Klein.
11 Marc Romboy & Blake Baxter / Fly Away / Version 1 / Systematic
Don’t be afraid of the boogie man! This is a dark corners,
strobelight special that builds and grooves, scares the living daylights
out of you and is very cool indeed.
12 Tommy Trash / Lover Lover / Instrumental / Hussle (au)
‘Lover Lover’ has subtle shades of Innersphere’s
‘Phunk’ and has such a sticky bottom end that you feel
like you’re dancing naked in an ocean of glue.
13 Supermal / Light Years / Phonat / Bandito
‘Light Years’ starts as a stripped down and simple bassline
groove then blooms into an epic synth and vocal workout that could
be completely French if Supermal weren’t English and Phonat
wasn’t Italian.
14 The Glass / Mad At You / Arveene & Misk / Plant Music
If you like aggressive, angular, funk-electro fury then Dubliners
Arveene and Misk provide just what you’re looking for.
15 Spoon, Harris & Obernik, / Baditude / Club / Toolroom
Sam Obernik drawls a tasty, Luciana-like vocal whilst Dirty South,
Axwell, Ingrosso and Angello are the subliminal aural references
that will propel Spoon and Harris’s pop opus towards the summer
charts.

1 Alan Braxe Feat Killa Kella And Fallon / Nightwatcher (Show Me) / Club / Vocal / Eye Industries
Originally known as ‘Addicted’, Braxe’s opus magnum bends genres like Uri Geller bends spoons. House, electro, breaks, trance, hip-hop, rave – it’s all there - and the vocal version will have Kanye West’s ‘Harder, Better’ fans queueing up for more.
2 Tom Neville / Dance Moves / Locked In The Garage / Love Minus Zero
With its grating synths, cut, snipped and fx-ed vocals and overloaded dubby bassline, Tom Neville’s ‘Dance Moves’ drops like a sumo break-dancer on shiny lino.
3 Zoo Brazil / Technik / Original / Gung Ho!
If you like suffering from musically induced psychosis then look no further. The jet propelled, zipped effects are enough to make you strap yourself into a strait-jacket!
4 Noisia / Gutterpunk / Jaymo / Mason / Skint
Jaymo delivers a heavily compressed, gluey mix that feels so tight you’ll think someone has kidnapped you and hidden you in a condom. Mason’s mixes lie in wait for you in the long shadows.
5 Albin Myers / Ultrabeat / Main / Joia
New kid to watch from the Swedish family, Albin Myers detonates this no-nonsense percussive dance floor devastator with a percolating, acid house fuse.
6 Sandy Vee Vs Axis / Bleep / Original / Style Of Eye / Joia
Guitars, haunting voices, an elastic bassline and a stripped down, kick-ass beat take ‘Bleep to the main floor. Style of Eye autograph it with an atmospheric, tech-electro flourish.
7 Crusader / Doctor Block Is Dancing In My Head / Stuffa / Eye Industries
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? This caped Crusader hides his true identity yet delivers peak time, punk-electro worthy of public adoration and recognition.
8 Jerry Ropero / Bangladesh / Dub / Interlabel
Jerry Ropero creates a dark and densely wooded, bleep and synth landscape that is as lush as it is dangerous.
9 Cube Guys / Baba O’Reilly / Original / Data
The Cube Guys blend The Who’s ‘Baba O Reilly’ with an Annie Lennox sounding vocal: It’s tribal, trancey, achingly atmospheric and fans of Les Experts / CSI will recognise it straight away.
10 Jerry Ropero / Mumba / Vocal / Vendetta
‘Mumba’ is a deceptive electro-latin crowd-pleaser that does not do what you expect it to do and after the vocal stops everyone stomps and claps to it, without exception.
11 Masi & Mello / The Afterworld / Vocal / So Deep Music
A thudding kick, maximal monotonous bleep and the ‘dearly beloved’ intro vocal flavour give Prince’s ‘Let’s Go Crazy’ a revived and very healthy shelf-life.
12 Sydney Blu / Give It Up For Me / Original / Mau5trap
Deamau5 is the man behind this plucked and fat-bass fuelled, tech-funk production. Leave it playing for long enough and it will scorch a hole in your underwear.
13 Andrew Friendly / Let’s Fxxk / Original / Gulp Communications
This chunky, cheeky and rather rude electro house vocal works wonderfully well.
14 Funkagenda / Together / Original / Shelvin
Funkagenda’s soaring instrumental helps the dance-floor masses achieve a communal nirvana with its hypnotic ‘together’ mantra.
15 King Amir / Samir’s Theme / Erick-e / Kontor
If you are a fan of Young MC’s ‘Know How’ and like Crookers and Fake Blood productions then this hip-house special should tear your floor limb from limb.

1 Jukey Feat Sway
/ The Way We Go / Laidback Luke / Herve / Data
I am loving the serpentine slither of Herve’s squealing distorted
rework whilst Laidback Luke’s uplifting remix is, once again,
the soaring, runaway, renegade master!
2 Fischerspooner / Danse En France / D.i.M
/ Kitsune
Welcome to Fischerspooner’s world but remixed in a wonderful,
compressed, squashy, and ever so slightly angry style by Hamburg
star D.I.M.
3 U.N.K.L.E / Restless / Fake Blood / Surrender
All
Fake Blood, producers / remixers to watch during 2008, rework UNKLE’s
‘Restless’ in a full strength, chewy and gluey, stop-a-superhero-in-his-tracks,
heavy house fashion.
4 John Dahlback & f.a.t.z presents / Godfather
/ Main / Joia
The ‘unknown / untitled’ track I have been playlisting
lately is ‘Godfather’ a phat-assed, acid-tinged, jazz
drummed John Dahlback/Luciano ingrosso production – so now
you know.
5 Swen Weber / Android / Main / Alphabet City
Don’t let the gentle introduction fool you – this ticking
time-bomb has the word ‘nasty’ embedded in its DNA helix
6 Tube & Berger Vs Swen Weber / Hayabusa
/ Main / Alphabet City
This electro / trance clash of the titans crackles and pops with
enough latent energy to power a small nation.
7 Joe T Vanelli / Harlem / Mark Knight Dub
/ Dreambeat
As much as Joe T Vanelli’s original vocal isn’t that
great, fans of Columbian Soul will love this, since Mark Knight’s
relentless dub is a two-towel, costume change, dance-floor oriented
workout.
8 Freakx Brothers / Soija / Main / Joia
Eat your PIN Number now, as Danny Freakazoid’s hypnotic head-trip
uses bells, bass, synths, white noise and distortion to sneakily
worm every bit of personal information out of you.
9 Da Fresh / Madness / Original / Freshin
The original mix of Madness is possibly the most subtle, yet the
dirtiest and sexiest electro-disco record around. The bassline kicks
ass. And there’s no lube required.
10 Japanese Popstars / Sample Whore / Main
/ Gung Ho!
I like the simplicity and solid structure of this track –
it blends light keys, a thick rolling bass, a heavy kick and porno
sighs to great effect.
11 Tom Neville / EP / Sick / LoveMinusZero
I have been pestering Tom Neville for ‘Sick’ since I
heard it on his covermount CD in 2006 – it’s a deep,
dark, drum and bass influenced psychosis . Pick your moment well.
12 Victor Palmez / I Feel Saxx / Robertson
& Gurd dub / Ego Music
Gurd and Robertson’s dub has a steel pulse and rolls itself
like a phat joint to the bassline (which is uncannily reminiscent
of Beats International’s ‘Dub Be Good To Me’).
13 Tomcraft / Boogie Nights / Original / Lutzenkirchen
/ Great Stuff
Harder than a titanium headbutt, Tomcraft’s Par-T-One sampling,
‘Boogie Nights’ flagrantly shows its ass to the four
horsemen of the apocalypse. Pitch it down for a deeper groove or
play Lutzenkirchen and go
maximal.
14 PATRIC LA FUNK / ICICLE / NICE7 / NOIR
MUSIC
It’s all about the Italians as Nice7 rough up Patric La Funk’s
Pryda-esque terrace tickler by adding a darker bassline and a razor-toothed
edge.
15 DJ RUSH / MOTHERFUCKING BASS / POPOFF
/ T/CLASSIX
Cut and stuttered and driving like a runaway BMW, Popoff splashes
his crispy snares all over the DJ Rush’s techno classic. Mix
1 for peak time, Mix 2 for afterhours. |
