MERKA - TURBO
With remixes by Kultur & Colombo and J*O*K*R
Big Square Records Cat: BGSQ013
Genres: Breaks

Release date: Monday 23rd August 2010 aka today!

Mark Ford aka Merka starts his comeback here. After a year or two away from the studio, the man who released two critically acclaimed albums on Fat! continues where he left off. Rolling sub bass, jazzy, skitty beats & lashings of funk in the Merka style make up the essence of Turbo. Add white noise, jazz horns, subtle keys & a spaced out guitar lick & you’re only half way there! Turbo is an out of this world odyssey into the mind of a true studio maverick. Hold on to your hats, Merka’s back!

The first remix comes from Spanish breaks superstars Kultur & Colombo. Stripping the beats back to pure nu skool Kultur & Colombo mould Turbo into a crispy, big room beefcake. Floaty pads & swirly bleeps build up into a euphoric wall of sound while retaining elements of the original. It’s easy to see why these guys productions are in such high demand lately. Big, tough & uncompromising, this Kultur & Colombo remix is one for any DJ who appreciates quality. The K&C remix was number one in the August Breaks Buzz Chart.

Next up Joe Kapiche & Ollie Rubicks aka J*O*K*R flex their remix muscles, mashing Turbo into a dirty rave beast of a stomper. With old skool flavour, four to the floor oomph & a glitch ravecore breakdown J*O*K*R’s skills shine thru as examples of true genre blurring & free thinking. Perfect for sweaty basements, this remix rounds off another tasty release from Big Square Records.
