Sparki's Faves December 2016

A1. See And Hear

Glinks and Worsleyy join us for the third instalment of the kurb. series. They have been popping as a pair and individually recently, with support on their tracks from Nia Archives, Pete Cannon and Mixtress.

The track entitled 'Clap Ur Hands' gives off a sick hardcore vibe, with large subs and a larger kick to compliment it. The playful rave stabs and sampled vocals give this track a silly energy that makes you want to boogie. Halfway through, the track goes darker and progresses into a tear-out amen hardcore drop.

Check out the full video! Link to YouTube in bio :)

A collection of tracks made over the past couple years, I'd try to make ravey stuff and end up getting too pickled. This is what the tunes ended up as.

Mikolaj Krencik, alias Miko, apart from his main project ‘Balagany Na Bani’ hip-hop collective, during the last year has also revealed himself as a great editor as well as a re-mixer in the juke/footwork world. After Symbiotic Sounds he was considered one of the most promising Polish producers promoting juke/footwork and his versions of hits like Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe, I'm In It or Bonfire showed the range of musical arsenal at his disposal. For majority of listeners the fundamental question was when his first EP would be released. After a long period of waiting Polish Juke would like to present the first debut material by Miko 'Do They Know Ya'. 

'Do They Know Ya' brings four original tracks, personal variations on footwork/juke. One should add they are quite surprising variations, which use the illustrative, space and ambient music, evoking emotions, interacting with the listener, attracting him/her. Footwork stays in the background and complements the whole making the basis for the sound, however, sometimes switches to the foreground speeding up the action a bit. 

'Do They Know Ya' is a clear-cut miniature, consistently and consciously prepared. The tension builds up gradually with no intrusiveness or obviousness. What is left is the essence required to please the ear and move the body to the beat.

Sparki Dee entered the world in 1987 and developed a passion for music at a young age, the emerging rave scene meant it went commercial and many of the groups got into the top 40. The likes of The Prodigy, SL2, Altern 8 were a source of interest and rave music became an obession. By 2000 Sparki was collecting records due in part to a local pirate station Essence FM playing the current dnb, jungle, garage etc of the time along with old skool 90s. Radio became another obsession and by 2002 aged 15 he was yearning for a set of decks which he finally got, his electic mixes fusing old and new meant he was adaptable and over the years earned him sets locally at Escape, The Lido along with sets at 
The Fridge in Brixton for example. By 2004 Sparki got into producing after joining Pie Factory Music a local music studio that helped young people produce, DJ, MC. Sparki produced a drum n bass track on the studios album
'The Zone A Piece Of The Pie' in 2006 earning him his first ever release which started the ball rolling for more on the likes of Kode 5, Azzuro, Allowance, Ravenoyz, Ravestomp, Addiction Records UK, Hardcore Lives and CT12 Recordings. Sparki had national airplay on BBC Radio 1 in 2007 and 2009 via Annie Nightingale, along with 6 Music, BBC Introducing and has featured on many internet, pirate, and community radio stations. 

Sparki's style spans from drum n bass to jungle all the way back to hardcore and not forgetting trance under his second alias 'Ligera Project'. Sparki is adaptable in the rave scene and has also remixed many artists tracks. Currently Sparki runs his own record label CT12 Recordings and releases his own tracks along with artists who don't get noticed, he still plays unsigned and under the radar artists on his radio shows on Pulse FM 88.2 and is praised for his outlook on the underground scenes. Sparki has been doing radio since 2007 starring on the likes of Shadow FM, Charge FM, Nu Rave, Planet Rave, London Pirate Radio, No Fear Radio, Spice,
Happy Nation, Global Dance, Pulse FM 88.2, Dance FM Live. 

Music is answer!

Lock in and lock on to Sparki's sound, you wont be disappointed.

Old Skool, Amens, Donks & Cheese. 

Straight outta Not'num. Bringing straight up acid rips which will make you grimace with sickness, pianos that will raise your hands and basslines that will rattle the dancefloor.
