Jimi Polar Phil Smart – Frostbite

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

JKBD007 :: Jimi Polar & Phil Smart | ‘FROSTBITE’ (A:: Original mix B:: JP Switch Remix)
Just when you thought winter was over, Jim and Phil take off the gloves and head out into the chilly night for a evening of serious clubbing. The original mix follows the sonic flavour that we’ve been pushing with the last few releases, percussive, dubbed out trickery that sticks to the groove and leaves the cheese in the fridge…

A :: ORIGINAL MIX :: Solid, Dubby and  consistent, great for long opener sets when you’re ready to pick things up and get serious.
B :: JIMI POLAR SWITCH MIX :: Jimi takes the same percussive elements and adds some very fat 303 action to the low end, the result is at least another 20kgs of aceeed funk to deal out.
