Momma’s Boy

The French maestro Teki Latex just sent us a track from the upcoming release on his fine imprint Sound Pellegrino. You’ve all heard of Mikix The Cat which is the more in your face alter ego of Momma’s Boy AKA Mike Gnacadja. Now we got the flip side track “Give It Up” from his new EP which is one fine piece of music and it will no doubt get tons of plays. Here’s the lodown courtesy of Teki:

“…While unleashing his hard bass-driven rave bursts as Mikix for Luca’s label Trouble & Bass, Mike kept his lighter, more playful side away from the public ear, but not from the Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team’s hard drives. Influenced by the sparse sounds of the house music of Now, as well as a rightful return to the African rythms of his Beninese roots, channelled by his move from Paris to Berlin, a new face of Mike Gnacadja was born, we decided to name it Momma’s Boy (after the restaurant in Curb Your Enthusiasm).

Orgasmic and I had an argument about whether “Give It Up” should be the A-side or not, but things like that don’t really matter anymore with digital releases, do they? Anyway I believe “Give It Up” is the hit of the EP. Banging yet subtle, evil yet pointing towards the direction of “a fun jam”, this track is like a sprinkle of hagelslag on an already delicious piece of toast in the middle of a well-furnished musical Dutch breakfast.

The seventh release on the all out awesome Berlin/NYC based label Nightshifters and it’s Chi-town B-more/house/bass producer Rob Threezy who brings us a jaw dropping EP entitled “The Change Up” (comes with remix work from Jokers Of The Scene, DJ Sega and Mikix The Cat). The title track gives us ravey synths that makes way for a wonky bass but by then we’ve already given in to this monster.

Disappear

The Trouble & Bass crew out of NYC seem hellbent on world domination, they’ve taken their bass heavy induced music across the world and everywhere they go they turn party crowds into devout bass believers.

Star Eyes has been dj’ing since the age of 15 and now it’s time for her to drop her first EP “Disappear” which is filled with what should be called “haunted house”. The title track is produced with Drop The Lime and it’s a raved up acid bass monster with mind boggling backwards vocals whereas this remix by Paris own Trouble & Bass bandit Mikix The Cat shows us what happens when you incorporate some of that French flavoured house.

Little Jinder remix EP

20-year-old Stockholm electropop singstress Little Jinder is one of our favorite acts to emerge from this fair country during the last year. Now she’s releasing the remix version of her debut EP “Polyhedron” on NYC label Trouble & Bass. The EP sees remixes from top heavy bass players such as Drop The Lime, AC Slater, Goon & Koyote, Math Head etc. French producer Mikix The Cat also did one and it’s the one we have for you today. Mikix gives us a version that’s starts out all slow and sweet with a steady beat and Josefines pretty voice but then quickly dissolves into a sharp and wobbly basspacked ride bound for the dancefloor.
