Say yes to fidget!
We have decided to post two of Hijacks tracks (in a Pelski kinda way I suppose) just because they are so much better than everyone else at the moment. The Sensation remix is just way too good, stealing the best sounds from the pretty stale minimal scene and mashing it with a jackin’ bassline that Stevie Wonder couldn’t handle. It is quite simply the tits! You can buy a 320 version of the Sensation remix @ Beatport

AC Slater – Jack Got Jacked (Jack Beats Remix)
No matter how many times i hear “Epic flow” i still love it.. Its been remixed a hell of a lot but every remix deserves credit! the best remix for me is the Chris James Remix.. Simply awesome!! Check it out!!
Suriv – Epic Flow (Chris James Remix)
Once again The Bulgarian brings us another top Quality tune!! Loving the vocals on this one also!!
The Bulgarian – Check To Check Millionaire
Kyle Watson produces cheeky fidgety/electro tunes with a funky twist. Think that sums this track up
The Squatters – Bring Back The Duck Feat. Mc Duke (Kyle Watson Mix)
The 8 Questions of DOOOOM!
I did a little unofficial feature (not too long back) about these guys and it turns out they really liked it. Here is a proper interview and a full length track for you to shake your fanny to. Yes!
As I said in the last feature Defunct! is made up of Jaksaw and Velox Music.
Jaksaw (Jack)
Hails from Bournemouth, fidget maestro with acclaim from some of the scene greats and is just getting better and better! Easily recognisable style using harsh basslines and unique hooks. Check out his tracks on his myspace.
Slade Templeton from Velox Music

Velox Music is electronic producer Slade Templeton’s solo outting for more of a minimal comfort zone that is still adjoined to the dance floor. It is an emotionally deep and tech-type journey that puts you into that state of “living through the speakers” while you listen. (Stolen from his myspace since I couldn’t describe it better!)
1. What is your most embarrasing pleasure?
Slade - Dancing like a maniac to some radical 80’s choons!
Jack - I’m a bit of a movie geek. Seen Aliens about 50 times! Mmmm….I should get out more.
2. What music were you forced to listen to as a kid?
Slade – The 80’s were the best, nothing forced though
. (please see above)
Jack - Errr…guess my parents were into Bob Marley, Eric Clapton, Dire Straits, that sort of stuff.
3. What is the coolest thing you have ever blagged for free?
Slade – Some nice software in the past (in which I don’t use anymore) but now, I always make sure to buy it to help support the maker (otherwise everything would be crap).
Jack – Caught a vinyl thrown out by a major hard dance DJ (who I was a big fan of at the time) at one of the UKs biggest clubs. The record sailed over everyone and came down as if just for me. A never forgotten moment. Everyone else was very jealous.
4. What are your top 3 coolest famous people (at least 2 have to be unrelated to music)?
Slade - (in no specific order)
1) Tim Burton
2) Winona Ryder
3) Danny Elfman
Jack -
1) Johnny Depp
2) Bob Marley
3) Spike Milligan
5. What is the best Venue you’ve played at / partyed at?
Slade – The best venue I have played is probably when I was 16 and was in a rock band we played a stop on Vans Warped Tour and was kind of my break into the music life… I mean, there are other venues that make me think were the best, but, that was my big first step so it meant a lot to me (always pops to mind first)
). I really cant tell you the best place I partied at because it was some underground Drum and Bass club in London… and apparently.. I partied so well… that I do not even remember the name! hah.. it was pure craziness though.
Jack - The best venue was just the other day actually club called “93 ft East” in London. Awesome venue, not the greatest in the booth but a great vibe, great people, great music…..great times!
6. What is your favourite TV theme? (it obviously has to be Powerpuff Girls)
If we are talking cartoons, then I would definitely have to say Courage The Cowardly Dog.
Is it cartoons? Well as a theme I’d have to say the Pink Panther theme is pretty epic!
7. What upcoming tracks are you excited about other than your own?
Slade - Truthfully I need to reach out more… lately I have been in the studio so much all I have heard is my own work or people I am working with. I would be extremely excited to see something from Depeche Mode though (or Dave Gahan atleast)… there has been talk for an 08 release but I have not heard any for sures yet.
Jack - Other than our own…..like Slade says I’ve been so focused on getting our own stuff ready its been hard to take in much else. I’m lovin’ “Stupid Fresh” at the moment they seem to have the magic touch, quirky, jackin’ beats…..Noice! And keep your ears out for “Wonk”, again great new home grown talent. (We’ve got some Wonk coming very soon! Keep your eyes peeled!)
8. Who would you like to work with in the future?
Slade - Anyone that is on the same playing field as us is always fun…they hafta love that filthy bass
… but I agree with Jack too, anything that inspires me is very key in what i’ll take on.
Jack - I’m always up for getting inspired off other peoples take on the house scene. Where ever it goes its all good with me.
Wicked interview by the fellas and we STILL have more for you! Check out this track from the release thats quickly becoming bigtime!
You can check out their new release at Beatport: Wobble and Twitch E.P.

Defunct! Say Rawr!
Defunct! are a collaboration between UK bass junkie, Jaksaw and more minimal minded USA producer Velox Music. I’ve been watching these guys for a bit and they are definitely someone to watch out for, especially their new release Wobble and Twitch E.P. out on Dangerbox Recordings. My favourite track on this release is the wobbly, jacked up Switcht (sample below). I have also included one of their previous releases which isn’t bad either. You can preorder the EP and get it a month early from the Defunct! myspace page! Enjoy!
