UPFRONTBEATS

Berkson & What are next up to release on Seth Troxler’s acclaimed Play It Say It with ‘Make It True’ feat. JoJo De Freq, a harmonious, radiant house jam with a sharp kick, acid tinged bassline, sultry vocals and smooth synths. Unsung hero Luke Solomon delivers a ‘Remix 4 Turnings’ version turing it into an almost new track with a grooving bassline, funky melody, spoken vocals and prominent hats. Legend Larry Heard aka Mr Fingers heads up the B­side, with his ‘Psychedelic Jungle Mix’ and ‘Smooth Mix’ doing just as they say.

Luke Solomon has covered it all from setting up the seminal label Classic Recordings with Derrick Carter to making the UK Top 10 with his band Freaks. Larry Heard is a musician widely known for the Chicago house music he produced in the mid­ 1980s with influential group Fingers Inc. and solo, most notably as Mr. Fingers.

The original can be found on the 12″ on Berkson & What’s forthcoming album, ‘Keep Up Appearances’ to be released in the year 2015 on their very own imprint Modelmaker. We have already featured a couple of the lads tracks over the last few month’s. The lads have really been fine turning their productions. We can see that 2015 is going to be a big year for the lads.
