Jiggyjoe At Juno Download

Review: New to Breakbeat Paradise Recordings, German producer Sascha Peterson aka JiggyJoe brings a hefty amount of dancehall flow, nu-skool funk and electro-tech heaviness to these four tracks. "Da Trumpets" uses a trick used by dancehall freaks from Basement Jaxx to Dillon Francis - namely the slowly pitch-rising vocal, layered over a confident and punchy midtempo bass beat. "Hola Amigos" features fellow countrymen Telephunken and melts in samples of "Guantanamera" along with a bucket load of beats, while "Rock To The Beat" maintains a similarly Cuban/Latin vibe.

Review: German remixer Sascha Petersen aka Jiggyjoe has a ball with some classics on this third collection from BBP-lending "Things That Make You Go Boom" with some heavyweight bass and kicks for example, or messing around with "Ride On Time" on the hectic piano house of "Good Vibes". Soft rockers Boston even get a look in on the hip hop/breaks rerub "Boston Illegal".

Review: It's a trumpet sandwich here as Joe runs the nu-funk gamut with consummate ease and tongue-in-cheek fun. "Swinging Joe" takes the quirky 1920s standard "Dipsy Doodle" and gives it a respectful bass injection from behind while the EP finale "Java Java" ends on a similar horn-heavy swing, this time clicking more of a Latino riddim. Betwixt these trumpetastic slices we get ragga-roused on "See Di Monks" and throw some serious electro shapes to the perky, stuttering chopfest "Double D". Tasty.
