The Ballistic Brothers – The Ballistic Brothers X Dub Flex EP (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
London's Ballistic Brothers occupied a genuinely rare space in 1990s UK club music, blending dub, hip-hop, and acid jazz into something that felt equally at home in a basement rave or a Soho record shop. Dominic Dawson brings his own deep roots in underground dance to this rework project, creating a dialogue between two artists who both understand that the best club music carries real weight.
Acid Jazz continues to explore the Ballistic Brothers catalog via an exciting remix project with renowned remixer Dominic Dawson. Dawson has produced many underground club hits since the 1990s, including the UK Top 30 hit ""Shake It Baby"" under the name Hydraulic Dogs. He has released music on dozens of labels including Defected, Strictly Rhythm and R&S, as well as performing remix duties forThe Chemical Brothers, Orbital, A Man Called Adam and many more. Here he tackles five of his favorite cuts from the Ballistics, and Acid Jazz houses them on a single 12"" EP. The Ballistic Brothers unique sound - perfectly straddling a number of club cultures - first broke through with their massive club hit ""Blacker,"" and over two albums, two EPs and numerous singles they explored and implemented a vision that saw funk, reggae, boogie, hip hop beats and house music effortlessly fuse together. The core members, Rocky & Diesel from X-Press 2, Ashely Beedle and label owner (and later Soul Revivers-founder) David Hill had the depth of knowledge to carry it off.
