Description
Features collaborations with DJ Rashad & DJ Spinn Gant-Man DJ Tre DJ Manny DJ Taye and DJ Earl. Once again the spirit of collaboration is a key element: Teklife is a closely connected group of friends working together harmoniously and pushing each other to greater heights and depths through a shared love of footwork. Smoke Dat Green Taso’s collaboration with DJ Earl was featured on Open Your Eyes and now Taso himself takes centre stage for the next instalment presenting unreleased classics alongside brand new footwork sounds. An accomplished DJ and MC Taso frequently appears alongside Spinn at Teklife showcases all over the world. A multi-instrumentalist with a degree in audio engineering Taso fuses raw musical talent with technical expertise. Since January this year he has released an impressive 8 volumes of the Cold Heat EP series bringing together a whole range of musical styles and moods through his MPC at 160 BPM. This versatility and willingness to draw inspiration from different sources is evident throughout the New Start LP. The title track is sultry and soulful with Rashad and Spinn’s masterful influence clearly present. Don’t Get Mad provides a stark contrast: a dancefloor-orientated hype track featuring an on point vocal by Gant-Man. Bussin featuring DJ Manny and DJ Tre sounds like a love letter from footwork to jungle music. Over on the flip side we start off with AM Track: another beautifully crafted classic featuring DJ Rashad and Dj Spinn. In the Green Room featuring Dj Taye is a muscular speaker-rattling West Coast jam and Murda Bass takes its cue from golden era UK Dubstep. The heavily - filtered final notes of De Capo Al Coda featuring DJ Earl round off a diverse but consistently high quality outing from Taso and the Teklife family.
