The Squatters - Higher (Champion Records)
‘Higher’ sticks firmly to their signature sound with stomping 4x4 beats and drops to a rave-influenced riff before building to a bleepy, slidy crescendo, accompanied by an all important vocal tag. We’ve seen this one do damage on an unsuspecting dancefloor and it does NOT disappoint!
On remix duties we’ve drafted in another duo who’ve been enjoying a steady rise throughout the last twelve months and more – the men behind Stamp Beats, and countless remixes including the likes of Skepta, Roisin Murphy, DJ Zinc and more – HeavyFeet! The boys bring in a bouncy skippy house beat to accompany the original main riff before dropping into some 80’s style kicks and snares and slipping in a piano line to boot. One for the golden isle dancefloors right here, in fact so much so we’ve also included this on our Ibiza 2011 compilation!
To finish, we’ve got newcomers Flask on dubstep remix duties. We knew that the big riff in the original virtually demanded a dubstep version, and this one does the business! Low end frequencies and coursing, piercing beats make this a must have weapon in your dubstep arsenal!
