BIG BEATS VOL 1 - Various Artists - 7" Vinyl Record

Big Beat drops cheeky grooves only, and they're all drawn from the endless world of hip-hop, b-boy breaks and r&b.

This new one taps into the work of a legendary US outfit known for bring it hard, raw and direct. 'Body Movin' is a mix of chopped and clipped rap fragments, booming drum breaks and old school scratching that is designed to get the floor going off. On the flip, familiar samples are worked into a new big beat assault by a familiar UK name turned global DJ superstar. Both tunes are robust and recognisable weapons.
