Suspender- "Quake" with remixes by Freaky Chakra and Phokus
Out now on Beatport
After a long hiatus Ritual Sounds is back with a storming package of west coast breakbeat goodness.
Suspender, originally from Argentina but now a LA native and part of the Los Angeles Breakbeat Association (LABA) gives us his finest work to date. Quake is the perfect title for this track as it shakes both stereos and dancefloors alike. Reminiscent of early Crystal Method but with a South American flavor, we are really happy to have Suspender as part of the Ritual Sounds crew.
Remixes come from West Coast wonder Freak Chakra, who gives us 2 different interpretations. His electro remix is stomping old skool electro with acid basslines and twisted effects, bringing us back to the sound that made Freaky Chakra a west coast legend. His house mix is a straight ahead tech-house journey using many of the same atmospheres but over a 4x4 groove. This is late night drug house at its finest.
Phokus gives us a glitchy breaks masterpiece of funk. This mix uses the original sounds but tweaks them out into the atmosphere, and your brain will follow close behind. Always pushing the envelope but never too out there to keep grooving, Phokus is really coming into hi own as a producer and remixer.
Suspender-“Quake” is available now as a pre-release on Beatport
Available worldwide on Itunes, Napster, and other download sites Jan. 1, 2008.
