Elite force – Jack The Joint [UAA014]

With Remixes from Zodiac Cartel, Deepgroove & Introspective.

OUT NOW :: Exclusively on Beatport

“Loving this new bumpy weird fairground ride smith & hack stylee” Sasha

“Elite Force’s eclectic, but always
pounding, U&A Recordings lets fly another belting remix package
with the allusive Zodiac Cartel once again turning up and running away
with the show. His mix of ‘Jack the Joint’ is one hell of a filthy,
groovin’ monster, which is how stomping, head down and ankle deep in
mud would sound if it were a noise instead of a scenario…hmm… Ok,
also Deepgroove turn in another nice version which is a little less
sludgy, but pleasing all the same, and we also have a cut from
Introspective who sit somewhere in the middle, with their pulsating big
bassline interpretation.” K1 [iDJ Magazine]

THE LOWDOWN

After a brief, summer breather, the U&A Empire strikes back,
light-sabres at the ready, with the next in their series of untouchable
re-works of classics from the Elite Force vaults. Under the remixers’
scalpels this time, is ‘Jack The Joint’, the bumping acid-house driven
epic that originally appeared on the Kingsize imprint back in 2003.
Whilst the original still oozes a timeless charm thanks to the
ubiquitous, bubbling 303s and euphoric strings, the re-workings take us
into fresh, uncharted territory, stretching the original into fresh
& fascinating forms.

First up is self-confessed ‘House head with a Techno soul’, Zodiac
Cartel, who has been in great demand from the likes of Instereo,
Cubism, Coco Machete, Wearhouse & TCR of late, following on from
his massive reworking of Elite Force’s ‘Used & Abused’ from late
last year. His reworkings of Jack the Joiny, both take different
courses, with the Bumpin’ Mix crafting an epic, fidget-orientated
journey through the world of the JACK (this mix has already appeared on
Meat Katie’s recent ‘Sessions’ mix album), whilst the Flowin’ Mix will
appeal to those looking for a smoother form of filth, pulsing as it
does right to the wire (this one is to be exclusively available from
Beatport).

Next up are Deepgroove who need no introduction, having been the
darlings of the new-school-of-house-music for a number of years now
with releases on Jesse Rose’s Made to Play, Alter Ego’s Klang
Elektronik and Darren Emerson’s Underwater imprints. They take the
original twist the Jack into new late-night forms with their heads-down
take on a deeper groove.

Last but not least, Tech-Funker uber-kid and Ministry of Sound /
Sinister darling Introspective, comes correct with what is surely his
most engaging and complete work yet. In a huge big-room electro-house
mix he conjours up an epic remix with grinding basslines and huge,
emotive breakdowns that is sure to get jaws dropping & floors
burning.
