The Just Kickin It EP is the Corduroy Mavericks' debut for Deepfunk, featuring three potent swing house stompers and on point remixes from Frankie J. and Chemars. "Sing To Swing" leads the charge, adopting a jazzy stance with its scat vocals, trumpet solo'ing, and growling stand-up bass all on top of solid house music rhythms. "It's Not Like That" follows, adding an R&B ingredient to an already funky stew with melodic vocal samples and a bouncing bass line. The third cut, "Game Show Playa", shows the Mavericks' sense of humor with some cleverly selected samples aiming to put a smile on the face while the feet are grooving on the floor. Party time!
Finally, "Sing To Swing" is revisited with a couple of club ready remixes. Frankie J. (Spatula City, Flapjack) expertly draws upon his Chicago home base for his version, featuring jazzy chord hits and drum fills driven by funky bass pops. Its deep house elements combined with a punchy rhythm lead to some serious late night action. Romanian producer Chemars (Blockhead, Funkfield) is next with an unabashedly jazz-influenced jackin' house mix complete with a bouncy piano line, horn stabs, and an old timey jazz crooner breakdown that is guaranteed to make the dance floor flip the f**k out.
