Review:
Golden boy of the breaks scene, Nick Thayer just keeps on getting bigger and better. With an album called "Just Let It Go" dropping soon, Zombies is a reminder of why the world is going loopy over the kid from Melbourne. With a slightly funky swing to the drums and some chunky bass rocking through the track, it's a winner that carries off some Thriller-style spooky vocals over the beats. Manchester's HeavyFeet take it and increase the funk a little, scaling back the bass and instead adding some tickling percussion along the way.
Another new Thayer song, Just Let It Go is a pleasing dip into midtempo hip-hop, with vocalist NFA asking "have you ever been with two girls at the same time?". Fort Knox Five keep their mix low-down and funky while Cutline speed things up and turn in a dizzying smasher, chopping the vocals and making it work like a chant over the slippery bass and kick-ass drums. Gimme Some More feat. Sporty-O keeps the hip-hop connection running, while Thayer himself has fun remixing it for the floor - upping the tempo and adding a fidget beat to the fun. Not only is this another blinding release from Thayer. it also makes the album seem like it's going to be simply huge!
