Diverse broken beat DJ/Producers Evil Nine have been selected to mix the next instalment of Fabric’s Live Series. The collective of two minds, Tom Beaufoy and Pat Pardy, have built a strong profile off the back of quality productions since they broke onto the scene with their Marine Parade debut, the atmospheric ‘Less Stress’.
FABRICLIVE 28 includes the usual raw sound we have come to expect from the duo with their usual widely encompassing soundscape in full effect. As they say this mix doesn’t fit the generic breaks bill, but that’s exactly what they set out to achieve:“I think the essence of breakbeat is different for us. Breaks can be anything; it can be housey, techno, electro, rock, have a hip hop vibe…people don’t take advantage of the fact that you can play all these different sounds. They just play this boring, regimented idea of ‘breakbeat,’ which isn’t at all how we see it. We tried to bring our view of breakbeat to light. It’s not a techy mix for chin-strokers – it’s definitely a party record. It may not necessarily be ‘breaks,’ as most people know it, but I think it has the essence and vibe that people would expect from us”
The albums full tracklisting is as below and to prove we aren’t talking sh*t you’ll notice it includes everything from acid-tinged basslines, electro, squelchy techno and breaks:
