Truskool Sessions 5 on air and to download

Time again for the eagerly awaited 5th Truskool Session. The series focuses on amazing breakbeat, melody driven bleepy house and everything in between, my personal selection of great tunes.

Since Truskool Session 3, we have been broadcasting the mix on the Midnight Minus Two broadcast on Brap FM. Session 5 is no exception, so tune in on Thursday at 8 pm.

After the show has aired (meaning Friday) the mix will be available for download on this blog and on the Sound of Habib site.

Still vocal for download

A lot of people have been requesting the vocal for the tune "Still" that me and Myagi did. In this age of digital dj-ing and version mashing we are more than happy to oblige. Keep telling us what you want and we will try to deliver.

Enjoy!

Mesmer "Furious Fish LP"


Mesmer - Furious Fish

Sound Of Habib proudly presents Mesmer’s debut LP, ‘Furious Fish’. This Romanian maestro is one of those rare producers whose prolific output is matched entirely – and invariably – by the supreme quality of his sound.

Having been on the up-and-up for the past few years, Mesmer’s magnificent ‘Rowlacoaster’ was released on Sound of Habib earlier this year, with a host of other productions fuelling his reputation as a major talent to watch. His sound is best described as deep, driving and atmospheric breakbeat, resplendent with choice vocal cuts, delicious psychedelia and a true sense of musicality.

From the sublime ‘Everytime We Lose Control’ and the speaker-shuddering ‘Wormsigns’ to the eccentric ‘Who Wants To Jack Jack’ and the percussive genius on ‘Lights Shine Down’, this album – every beat of it – will invigorate your soul, spank the dancefloor and leave you properly wowed. It’s the sound of Mesmer, and it’s every bit what breakbeat should be.

"Mesmer continues to absolutely destroy the face of breakbeat, and this LP should shatter the breaks are dead rumours" - Daniella Downs

"This album hit me like a cool head wrap in the desert, not since Dan F and PMT have I heard such freshly produced 'progressive' breaks tracks that really take a listener on a journey" - Dov, Muti Music

"feeling this mate really nice to hear mesmer being more playful and experimental while staying true to his core musicality.
This is great stuff from him its got lots of lasting appeal, will be playing a lot!" - Youthful implants
