- New:BPM is a new series of breaks mix CD’s being released by en:vision with the first volume mixed by Madam Breaks who has remixed the very tight Sit Tight by Tamsin & 10 Sui on Botchit & Scarper. Seems that a lot of nu-skool breaks mixes are coming out nowadays so it would be interesting to see what each label does to keep themselves one step ahead of the rest.
Side A. Bassplugger – Sumac (Future Funk Squad’s ‘Septic Funk’ Remix)
Exclusive to the 12”is the Future Funk Squad remix and after putting his special FFS touch on tracks like The Antidote, Living For Kicks and Koma & Bones’ High Rollin’, it should come as no surprise that this remix is damn wicked too. Plenty of build ups and drops throughout with plenty of tech stabs thrown in; this tune builds up as it moves along with some heavy bass thrown in the middle. Very nice and clean drum breaks with that hard nu-skool feel.
Side AA. Transformer Man – Robocallgirl
The hard breaks continue on this side, with plenty of tech elements thrown into the mix, along with one that sounds like it was sampled from Scram. Using a hard bassline, some interesting electro stabs and a few drum fills in this side, make this 12” worth a listen to especially if hard nu-skool breaks are your thing.
