Mush on techno

Patrick Topping’s productions have an effortless swagger when it comes to working the dancefloor and still only on his second EP, the North-East’s star in the making is showing plenty of nous with his massive debut for Hot Trax and now the intoxicating ‘Any Amounts EP’ on Hot creations. A-side ‘Any Amounts’ is getting hammered by Jamie Jones and crew, packed with stomping bass and ridiculously infectious top-lines, it’s a simple and dangerously effective weapon to destroy all dancefloors. ‘The Point’ moves into glitchier territory with another tough and raw bassline and old-school synths. On the flip, ‘Look Around’ weaves provocative vocal clips with heavy bass, a disembodied chorus and syncopated beats. Last but not least Patrick pairs another breathless vocal sample for ‘In My’ with a stripped back bumpin’ house groove, arpeggiated synths and subaqueous growl.

Patrick Topping delivered his first EP ‘Walk On’ on off-shoot Hot Trax earlier this year, which reached no.5 in the Beatport Deep House charts and was championed by Pete Tong on his legendary BBC radio 1 show.

With his tracks gaining support from heavyweights Franck Roger, Richy Ahmed and Darius Syrossian and Jamie Jones even before they were signed, it was only a matter of time before the budding artist broke into the limelight.

Now 24 years old Patrick, first built a DJ career around playing at his own popular club night in Newcastle, Motion while at Uni but started concentrating on production in 2011. Through the old-fashioned demos route, Patrick caught the attention of the Hot Creations camp as they recognised the talent and Patrick’s innate ability to craft a banging record.

Michael Bibi debut's on Electronique bringing us his Sweepstake EP very much keeping with our ethos of pushing new and exciting talents this young London based DJ / Producer manages to fuse a plethora of different styles across all 3 original cuts.

Lead track Sweepstake is a slice of chunky grinding techno which is then expertly remixed into a dark pumping groover by Mobilee and Leftroom stalwart Geddes who adds his fresh touch with deep piano's and atmospheric stabs really turning the original on it's head, 

Next up is the bouncy percussion led Jack Begins spot the cheeky sample in that one! before changing the mood of the whole EP completely to finish with Das Is Forboden haunting vocals and a laid back guitar laden groove perfect for those early sunrise or late sunset moments.
