A-Trak cooked up another batch of raw SP1200 bangers and this 3rd installment is extra crunchy. Using the vintage sampler that helped define the sound of Todd Terry, Stardust and Kenny Dope, and working within the confines of its extremely short sample time, Trizzy went to work and concocted some gold. Whether it’s the insanely funky bassline of Like I Said, the hardgroove chugging of JustCantLive or the surprising techno bump of Jyeah, this EP is full of weapons. It’s obvious that A-Trak had a smirk on his face when he was cutting up those kicks and hats.

A-Trak - Riiide

Nothing beats a funky bassline. Now if you add some jive talking over a funky bassline? Then you’re hitting the sweet spot. Created on the holy grail of samplers, the E-Mu SP1200, Like I Said is A-Trak at his grooviest, cutting up drum breaks for the dancefloor. When the world is divided, we turn to one thing: the funk. Keep an eye out for Trizzy’s upcoming 10 Seconds Vol. 3 EP with more rawness for your crates.
