Acid Jazz continues to explore the Ballistic Brothers catalogue 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 for The Chemical Brothers, Orbital, A Man Called Adam and many more. Here he tackles five of his favourite 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.
The EPs five tracks reflect that eclectic sound, tackling ‘Blacker’ of course, but also the out-and-out ska of ‘Peckings’ and the heavy roots reggae sound of ‘Jah Jah Call Me’. A New York house-style dub of ‘Come On’ leads the way and Dominic shakes our spiritual jazz roots with a take on the Alice Coltrane-approved ‘A Love Supreme’
