We've got some tasty treats on the table for everyone today! A free tune and a free mix that are both banging, what more could you ask for on a fine Thursday in November? Bringing you the Electro-Punk-Breakbeat business is none other than the lad from London known as Stylus Rex. Since the first self-pressed vinyl "Boomstick" was released in 2005, the Stylus Rex sound has come a long way. With a plethora of releases on labels like Punk Funk, Re:Connect, Control Breaks and more and five singles on Ground Level Records alone, Styles Rex is consistently pushing forward the underground bass and beats sound. Coinciding with his newest release "Volta", Stylus Rex has slipped us a spiffy "Taster Edit" for you to grab and also a pulse pounding "Touch Me I'm Sick" Dj mix to go with it. The Tech-Funk/Electro Breaks sound of "Volta" is a fresh electrified throb that is sure to amp up the party. Grooving bass gets things moving right from the get-go. Fans of the Hedflux sound will definitely want to check out this one. Steadily building straight through to three and a half minutes in with some crowd noise sprinkled over the top, the buildup is quite large and it comes back in smooth as butter after the breakdown with a real clean and techy feel. First up on remix responsibilities are Kiwa bringing us their signature sound from Finland. Hard driving beats and mean sub freqs push things along with the energetic synths and tops taking this one to peak time territory. Top stuff as usual from them. Jay Stewart is all over the other remix taking things back to the roots of Breaks. Techy and slick Jay works the groove with solid drums and a super funky feel. More cowbell, yes please. A quick mix in let's you give the track plenty of time to do it's thang and that it will as Jay extends the breakdown into a 3am hands in the air moment. Generous as Stylus Rex is, there is also the rolling "Taster Edit" for you to download available below. Plus, if you're in the mood for a healthy helping of tunas, check out the "Touch Me I'm Sick" mix also available below, which is stuffed like a Turkey by chefs like Noisia, Elite Force and Zodiac Cartel to name a few. So stop reading and get downloading already!
