HiJack & Flinch - Musical Chairs EP (Minimix) (Zippy Share)


HiJack has this unrivalled ability to stay current, and furthermore stay one step ahead of the crowd.

It is to this end, that their latest EP leans towards a techier, edgier side of house, and is merely an experiment - that just happens to be ALIVE with a jackin vibe.

Expect to see much much more from Jack Union going into 2009, after a renewed injection of vigour and an installation of a dedicated administration team, the label now has the infrastructure to concentrate on delivering quality output, and regularly!

Next up for Jack Union are EP's from Wongo, Tom EQ and Jak-Z, aswell as originals and remixes from label owners HiJack!

Spencer Spiketail EP Promo

The Spencer Spiketail EP has been getting rave reviews, with a perfect 10/10 in iDJ, comparisons to Green Velvet, Freaks, and Classic Recordings, and DJ support from the likes of Satoshi Tomiie, Luke Solomon, Laurent Garnier, Johnny Fiasco, Onionz and M.A.N.D.Y. to name but a few. The EP is anchored by the single "My Synthesizer Won't Behave", a tech house banger built around George's witty spoken word vocal directed towards his synthesizer. The narrative uses a call and response between George's vocals and a variety of his synthesizer's bleeps and bloops to create an extremely unique, quirky, and yet completely dance floor driven track.

Label bosses The Fingermonsters step up to the plate with their own remix of "My Synthesizer Won't Behave", taking the energy up a notch with their off the wall blend of tech and electro beats. Their remix cuts the vocal elements back to the chorus and rebuilds around a massive analog synth line.

Andrew Phelan & Origami's version of the track strips things back to their core, reprogramming the original bassline and building the energy back up around a heavy dose of percussion, creating an extremely mixable track with a decidedly old school feel.

For more info on Monsta Music, please visit Monsta's parent label, Prismatic Tracks.
