Area 94 Records – Various Artists – South Beach EP

A nice new EP released for the Miami WMC on Area 94 Records, consisting of four huge tracks. I recently reviewed a track on this label that was remixed by Federico Scavo and it’s still doing it for me. Let’s go through this EP individually.

First up is ‘Alex Kenji & Federico Scavo – Never Give Up‘, this is a very lively old skool sounding, funky house track. They use a high noted string stab which repeats throughout, and a big funky bass rhythm. Very bouncy with a one-liner vocal sitting on top.
Then there’s ‘Rhythmoholia – Sing It Again‘, this is another old skool sounding track with a great female vocal. I really enjoy the first breakdown where it has a nice 80’s funk feel then a build into a big twitchy tech track, I love it!
The third track on the EP is ‘Flynn Nolan & The Satori Sound – Only You‘. This track has a punchy deep warpy bassline sat under some nice 909 hats and some good vocals. I’d definitely drop this one in a set!
Finally there’s ‘Michael Clark – Broadway‘. In complete honesty, this one isn’t for me! I like the idea and the feel of it but its probably a little too ‘euro-commercial’ for me. I could imagine this going off in a club though, it’s got some big stabby bass synths and a punchy deep bassline which I do like.

Good times 🙂

Money & Cash – Work This (Federico Scavo Remix)

Now this is a track thats getting absolutely hammered by a lot of the big names at the moment. Federico Scavo on the remix of this one and believe me it’s a biggun! HUGE brass bass riff that builds and builds into an almighty drop. Lovely off-beat snares give this a real skippy drum sound. This has main room written all over it and you’ll see why! Federico Scavo is a producer we follow closely and I gotta say that this is one of my favourites of his. Right up my street!

Pete Griffiths ft Cevin Fisher – Chicago

Pete Griffiths has signed this stormer to Toolroom Records with remixes from Weiss, Vanilla Ace and Federico Scavo. The original is nice and punchy with a great vocal, really nice breakdown with a great build and drop. The Federico Scavo remix is slightly different to his usual style as he has made this version almost electro, great remix! Weiss has taken the track really deep with some sketchy drums and nice arpeggiated keys, something for the underground! Vanilla Ace’s remix is more of a mainstream ‘deep-house’ version with emphasized bass, a great build and drop. I’m not sure which is my favourite mix, possible the original version or the Vanilla Ace?! It’s a close call! Due out tomorrow (Weds 10th December) according to the Toolroom Soundcloud page.

Raw Silk – Do It To The Music (Federico Scavo Remix)

Well it doesn’t come much more mainroom and funky then this! Using the old ‘Musics Hypnotizing’ acapella along with a fresh sax and a funky bassline, Federico Scavo’s got it sussed with this one! Definitely one for the gig bag!
