100 Dances Reworks

If you hadn’t guessed by now, we’re big fans of the Swing Ting crew here at Truants. Samrai & Platt have already provided us with a Truancy Volume and a premiere of their track “Bad Riddim“, and Florentino served us up his edit of “Get You Alone” last year. In 2015, Swing Ting fully established their label arm to run alongside their monthly clubnight in Manchester, putting out five releases including their first LP – Madd Again!’s MaddTing Vol. 1. Their first delivery of 2016 comes in the form of “Tease Me”, where they link up with Kingston’s Equiknoxx crew: vocals provided by Kemikal, with Puppy Disco remixing the single. You might remember the original as the closer to Truancy Volume 127.

We’re very lucky to have both tracks for you to listen to here first. “Tease Me” is a kicked-back groove with a gorgeous garage-y bassline and airy keys, which spins back and pops off enough to make anyone wish for the long summer evenings to roll round again. It’s the perfect accompaniment for Kemikal, whose rhymes hype it up just enough to make it perfect for the dancefloor. On the flip, Puppy Disco deftly crafts a carefree vibe, repitching Kemikal’s vocals alongside vocoders and organs to wash away any February blues you might have.

We also asked all the crew involved how the tracks and the Manchester/Kingston link up came about – here’s what they had to say:

Our second Asian Underground mix comes courtesy of Adnan Afghani, who takes use through some of the darker ends of the movement blending classics and currents. 

"The Sounds of the Asian Underground was more than just an amalgamation of sounds. It was the film that lined the eyes of a generation caught between the memories of colonization and postcolonial Britain. Music that tracks the route carved into the empire’s tentacles and the roots laid in children flung far across the globe with an imagined home in alien terrain. As time moves and distances widen, this mix represents an engagement with a lineage of artists who have been inspired by their place in between the lines of history's movements."

Swing Ting mark the one year anniversary of their debut LP 100 Dances with a fresh rework of fan-favourite "Just a Feeling" with HMD (@claremontworld), courtesy of Brackles. Evoking his well-loved Rinse FM residency of years gone by, @Brackles brings a 2021 twist to the house sound of London, turning the sweet street soul of the original production into a boogie-tinged dancefloor filler.
