Debut release for Jack Sparrow on the mighty Tectonic imprint. The rising star shows a different side from his previous floor smashing rhythms for labels like Contagious and Earwax as he unleashes a deep, dark, tribal roller on one side of the plate and a more melodic deep house infused take on dubstep for the flip. Quality dance music with a ‘no comprimise’ mentality.

‘The Chase’ begins with a dissonnant chord – rising, evolving and building the tension slowly before energised hats come crashing in and build to the drop. In come raging subs and a tribal conga pattern which will get you skanking the moment you get over the impact. This is a heavily weighted bassline and on the right system you will feel it pushing hard. Jack Sparrow really touches a sound that so far only the likes of Mala and Shackleton have managed to pull off sucessfully.

Flip then for ‘Fullest’, featuring Sparrow’s friend Biggins alongside on the buttons – a very different beast from the cold rolling a-side. ‘Fullest’ holds a more relaxed vibe, less tense and far more melodic, the gallopping kick pattern rolls with smooth silky chords layering up in a deep house style. Featured in the Tectonic Plates Volume 2 (Pinch Mix CD), this is cool, breezy musical dubstep for the easy groovers.
