Introducing... Faisal.

Got a wee heads up for you today and this is a quick post as I'm realllllly busy this week, but here's a couple of great tunes from an Erol Forum friend and top lad by the name of Faisal. He suffered somewhat of a setback last year when his hard drive failed and all of his samples/production work was lost.

He's steadily been getting himself back together, and the setback can't all be a bad thing, as he's managed to come up with these cheeky tunes. Clearly he's been hard at work since the turn of the year, and with current support from the one and only Kissy Sell Out as of later tonight on Radio 1, Faisal will certainly be moving in the right direction. Congrats, and please keep up the work dude.

Faisal - get down by faisal

It's not a style that I really post often myself on this blog, but these are some top tunes. Quite a different French house take to what I'm used to... but I'm a sucker for deep rolling basslines, especially when they're accompanied by the synths on Get Down. Quality stuff... and as for Faisal's take on Soulwax's of E-Talking, vocals, vocals, vocals... I love how everything drops off slightly before the drop too, unexpected and worthy of praise. The stereo width and the drumming production on this remix is also, spot on... Festival destroyer for 2010 for sure!

Jack Beats - The EP..... RELEASE IT!

Ok, so my anticipation level at this moment in time is going through the roof right! I've just found this video on the Erol Alkan forum and on Jack Beats' myspace and I need to share it with you.

Disclaimer: This video contains scenes of Unidentified Fucking Obscenity..... ;)

Be prepared to hit be by that K-Hole Bass

Within this video includes possibly one of the biggest underground bass churned goodies of the year... in Jack Beats - U.F.O, which is the leading track on their new EP scheduled for release soon (actually, scheduled for release sometime in the near future that I don't know about!) on Herve's Cheap Thrills label... along with a new mix of 'Get Down'.

Put this one in your diary if you haven't already done so!

Jack Beats are playing along side Armand Van Helden, Evil Nine & Riton this sunday at Matter... get along to it if you can!
