Crackazat returns to Freerange for his latest EP entitled 'Shine', and sees the artist in his finest form to date! An absolute anthem in the making, the title track appears here in Club Mix and Mana's Dub form, plus an amazing flip of 'Crouching Tiger' from Baltimore legend Karizma'Shine' is a soulful, jazz-inflicted epic which will have any dance floor worth it's salt fully locked in. Crackazat's own vocals bring hints of Jamiroquai whilst his production calls to mind golden era MAW and Blaze. Add an incredible arrangement, live horns, bass, and drums to this already heady concoction and you get an idea of why we're so excited about this release. These kind of club tracks are few and far between these days!Next up we have one of Crackazat's own 'Mana's Dub' of 'Shine'. A chance for Ben to strip things back, loop things up, and dub things out. Keeping the funk intact, we're treated to a feel good party-starting house track which has a classic sound that can't fail to warm the cockles!Flip over for a proper curve-ball from everyone's favorite Baltimore house hero Karizma, who turns 'Crouching Tiger' into the kind of twisted, rolling, jazzy, and leftfield workout we love him for. A driving force of the city's underground, he always comes with the raw energy and fearless creativity. A staple of the dance floor and a leader beyond it, Karizma represents the past, present, and future of Baltimore House and once again proves why he's such a don. Drop this one and run for cover whilst the dancers throw crazy shapes! Closing out the EP we have Crackazat's 'Mana's Dub' take on previous single 'Watchu Say'.Looping up the killer piano hook and his live bass line, Ben manages to craft the kind of warm, uplifting slice of house music which simply works. And for those who love a big drop, this one should fit the bill with a trademark 'Mana's Dub' seratonin-boosting build that hits all the right buttons.Tracklisting:A1. Shine (Club Mix)A2.
