Review: With their reputation now being pretty much solidified in every field, we look upon every new Strictly Flava release with nothing but excitement, trusting their A&R process completely. They pull out yet another corker of a two-tracker here, as they welcome the stunning fusion-driven sounds of Howden, kicking us off with the super-vibrant displays of 'Respect', which combines nostalgic LFO action with futuristic pad textures for a powerful kickstarter. On the flip-side to this, we take in 'Where You Go', this time demonstrating some exceptional vocal slicing skills, hearing tasty chops layered atop a blippy instrumental structure with fantastic results.
Review: Is there anything Strictly Flava can't do well? So far this year they have been without a doubt one of the strongest labels working in the realms of UKG, and that record is amplified even further on this latest release from CJ Reign. As a single, 'Move My Way' is a fantastically produced original, skipping between patois toasting and well processed harmonized vocal chops, creating a really cool sense of energy over some vibrant drum work and melodic structure. This one also comes complete with a stripped back dub mix, focussing more so on the potent basslines and sharp slices within the original.
