Max Chapman – Jackin’ EP

Now here’s something I’ve been waiting quite a while to be released. Massive shout out to the lads over at Lost Records for sending this to me, this is an EP that has been featured both on my radio show and also on the May edition of the phuk podcast. Brand new out on on Leftwing & Kody’s label ‘Lost Records’ is this 5-track EP by Max Chapman and I got to say, it’s absolutely awesome & definitely something to get excited about! The EP consists of 3 original tracks and two of them have had remix treatment by Leftwing & Kody and PAWSA.

We’ll kick things off with the original mix of the title track ‘Jackin’. This has a huge kick drum and a really deep bass pattern sitting under some amazing male vocal stabs and one-liners, this one absolutely goes off in the clubs! The next track is the original mix of the track ‘Holding On’ which has a nice catchy vocal loop sat over some sketchy tech drums and a deep warpy bassline. There is a really dark element to this tune and even if I hear this on a small sound system, I can’t help but bounce my head along with it! Sitting nicely alongside the original of Holding On, is a fantastic remix by label owners Leftwing & Kody. Taking the original vocal loop and placing it over a slightly more upbeat track with an almost acidy deep sounding bass. I have tried and tested this one and it goes off guaranteed! Next up on the EP is a track called ‘Too Late’, consisting of an eerie female vocal laying nicely over a massive deep bassline, this is big! Loads of claps and snares, big builds and drops.. Huge! The final track on this 5 part EP is the PAWSA remix of title track ‘Jackin’. Now, if you don’t know who PAWSA is then you need to check out one of the previous Lost Records EP releases as this producer absolutely smashed it. Adding his spin on this track and making it brilliant! Making good use of the original vocal snippets and creating quite a dark remix with some lovely hats, shakers and subtle chords. I could honestly put this on repeat for ages, such a tune!

I can’t back this label enough, some serious releases! This one is out now..

Pawsa – Pilot EP

Out on Lost Records and a debut on the label for Pawsa. There’s four tracks on this EP release including 3 originals and a remix from Supernova. The first is ‘Pilot’, a nice deep bassline sitting under a big flowing drum pattern with some great sounding twitchy shakers, very eerie flow but awesome! The second track is called ‘Narcissist’ and is slightly more upbeat, nice techy drums & stabby synth with a very deep bass pattern. This definitely needs to be heard on a big club system to really appreciate it, huge tune! The final track is ‘Pretty Good Debbie’ which features the Supernova remix. The original has a great breakdown and a vocal by Denzel Washington taken from the film ‘Training Day’. Also has a nice build and drop into a deep techy corker. The Supernova remix is a slightly more upbeat version with a flowing synth and an acid warp sounding bassline, massive tune! Although all tracks are brilliant, I’d say my favourite is Pilot. Check out all four tracks on this single Soundcloud sample.
