The latest Kniteforce box set features the legendary Shades of Rhythm, some of their best tracks and some truly jaw dropping remixes! Buy on Vinyl+Digital from the Kniteforce online store
First of all, there’s the originals. Kniteforce have a knack of putting out the best sounding masters which enhance those oldskool gems so much!!! As I listen to timeless tunes like ‘Sweet Sensation’ and ‘Armageddon’, I’m hearing parts of the track I’d never heard until now. And they are all here, nice and loud, clean and crisp, ‘Sound of Eden’, ‘Homicide’, you name ’em, they’re all there and they sound extra special!
This takes us to the remixes, could you ever have imagined Nookie taking on Sweet Sensation? The warehouse rave anthem is transformed into a masterful slice of deep DnB with Jazzy overtones and a main room vibe for the DnB raves and festivals!
Fresh from their own KF boxset, The House Crew remix ‘Sound of Eden’ symphonic style. That sounds exactly how you think with real orchestral strings, a sped up break and driving bassline, a rave in the symphony hall if you will!!!
Blame goes right back to 92 in style and tempo for a stunning remix of ‘Summer of 89.’ You can hear the ‘Music Takes You’ break tucked away in the bright, bleepy piano tune plus a touch of Reese bass for the Jungle crew!!!
Mark Archer injects the sound of Altern 8 into the classic ‘Homicide’, beefing up the breaks and chopping up the stabs nicely for a tidy update.
Jimmy J & Cru L T push the pitch fader right up on ‘Extasy’ for a classic Kniteforce rerub, faithful to the OG tune but with KF style pounding breaks and kicks and the monster energy of a JJ n’CLT production!!!
Ramos gives SOE that signature powerful, emotive and uplifting vibe of his own 90s productions with bristling modern production that will go down well with the Breaks n’ Bass crowd or pretty much anyone for that matter!!!
Sunshine Productions give ‘Everybody’ the 93/94 Breakbeat Hardcore treatment, blending the original with SP’s piano driven style a la ‘
KF boss, Luna C drops an absolutely kiler remix of ‘Armageddon’ , pure 91 mentasm and hoover business that’ll make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. If, like me, you’re a fan of the Kniteforce Prime series, this ones going straight in your airpods/earbuds/hedphones/speakers!!!
