Its nearly month since our first of our compilation series was launched and already the response has been amazing, so we thought it about time to hit you with another HUGE sampler package. This one sees offerings from Elite Force, Jono Fernandez and Nick Thayer and 30Hz, four of Lot 49’s absolute top producers. These are tracks which epitomise tech-funk; hard-hitting percussion, rolling basslines and gritty, driving percussion with that all important groove.
First up label stalwart Elite Force takes the reigns, laying down a slice of tough, tech-funk which only Elite Force could pull off. The energy and noise literally glows off this record, the bass pulsing underneath a drum section so tight there’s barely room for air! The track switches effortlessly between house and breaks, layering disco samples over techno rhythms in an utterly unique way. Definitely one for those 4am moments!
Next in are Jono Fernandez & Nick Thayer, two producers who are at the heart of much of the quality music to come out of the Australian breaks scene over the last few years. ‘Stay On The Line’ sums this sound up completely; a hard hitting break, grinding electronic bass and effected sampled vocals merge together forming a mass of funk-infused tech-house nonsense so weighty we needed a JCB just to get it out of the studio (ok that’s a lie, it was just a pickup).
Rounding off the package is one of the shining lights of Bristol’s vibrant breaks scene, 30Hz. ‘Mutton’ is arguably his finest work to date, a relentless, grinding piece of tech-house with loads of glitches, tweaks and more high-frequency distortion than a room full of pre-menstrual women. The track drives along until a huge breakdown which does the business, bringing the track up about 5 new gears before slamming you right back into the groove. Mutton dressed as lamb this ain’t!
