Jack Your Soul

Here's a track that really got me reminiscing about the real hey day of Fidget and Jacking. Will Bailey and Hot Mouth have created a track that stands out from all the noisy white noise that passes for music lately. This track is bouncy and has a lot of soul. I'm not too sure if it's Jackin/Fidget to be sure, but get it anyway, it's not gonna blow your socks off but definitely quality

Let The MOnsters Take Over

One of my latest and greatest finds is a collaboration between a one DJ Sparkle and Motor City Drum Ensemble. I'm a big fan of MCDE and i was quick to grab this, wow was i surprised by just how dark and dirty this deep-tech number is. While the break spoils it a bit for me, this is such a quality track, Get it now!

Creamy Pasta

Last friday my mate Ando and i headed to Kitcheners Bar in Braamfontein to see Digital Rockit perform a 5 hour minimal/tech set. First up, the venue and crowd were so awesome and on point, it's good to see that minimal has it's loyal followers. After the event i found myself hunting for new stuff and stumbled on some swell tech tracks by Poligono. While both have a unique sound, the tracks have a dirty underground tribal undertone which would be perfect for that early morning set as you're just drunk enough but still chilled. Quality

Happy Holidays From Mini K

Mike Kelly aka Mini K has so generously decided to share some stuff he's been working on, and jeez this stuff is insane. This guy's obviously been working non-stop, as he has given us quite a few remixes and original tracks. I'm loving his unique build-up, with its trance-y feel. I think that 2010 is gonna be a huge year for him. Enjoy

Soul Delight

I've been jamming a lot of chill sessions lately and i find that electro/fidget/minimal aren't exactly conducive to setting the mood. So it's always good to find a house track, while chilled, is funky and jazzy enough not to settle impressively into the background. This track by Audio Werner is a keeper, so soulful, so chilled

Audio Werner - Bakshi

Hijackin

I got this little surprise in my facebook inbox yesterday, it pays to be part of the Hijack group on Facebook. It's a new remix by the English Fidget Impresario. This track really surprised me because its so phat and bouncy, unlike most Hijack tunes, its slower but with a more focused rhythm, the bass is perfectly matched with the moody vocals. I suggest jamming this on the way to a club, quite massive

Adam Freeland - Morning Sun (Hijack Remix)

Jacking Jones
