J-Boogie brought this track in while I was working at Tierra Studios in Houston. We mixed it in Pro Tools. In addition, I used the Summit Audio DCL-200 Dual Channel Stereo Tube Compressor/Limiter and GML EQ.

Melting Records is pleased to snag and reissue the rare album Five Finger Discount from Budapest-based producer Nándor Kürtössy, known here as Savages. Originally released in 2008 in a limited fashion and only on compact disc, the album has been sought after by hip hop and trip hop heads alike. Melting Records has now issued this classic album for the first time on vinyl and is ready to give these tracks the wide audience they deserve.

Nándor Kürtössy is a prolific producer, behind many projects like Kovacs, Savages y Suefo, and Vega Ass, and is also the founder of his own Hungarian electronic music label, Mana Mana Records. Five Finger Discount was Nándor’s first release, born from the previous few years of sessions creating tracks for himself and his friends. Encouraged to collect these cuts onto an album, Savages was created and this remarkable album revealed. Its legend has grown since the initial release with some considering Five Finger Discount a classic of eastern European hip hop culture. The album track “You’re My Chocolate” has since become quite popular among the Greek downtempo DJ scene.

The melancholic guitars and tranquil atmosphere of “You’re My Chocolate” are indeed special, and its languid beats lead the listener through an evocative journey told through sound. This cut is indicative of Savages’ vibe and is only one of the highlights on this jam-packed album. Cuts like “Lookin’ For You”, “Long Distances”, and “The Blow” also captivate by combining hip hop, vintage lounge, and dance floor appeal into a heady, sample-rich stew. Nándor’s sense of humor is also evident throughout as spoken snippets and spy-crafted rhythms intermingle within the playful arrangements. Savages is on point … and this Five Finger Discount is a hefty bargain.

Riva Starr burst into the electronic music scene in 2009 with a refreshing take on Latin house for some of the most respected underground dance labels like Get Physical, Dirtybird and Made to Play. A prolific producer and internationally in-demand club DJ, Riva swiftly proceeded to confound his fledgling fan base with Balkan beat behemoth “I Was Drunk” which has since amassed well over 8 million views on YouTube.

After further time spent in collaborations with dance music godfathers such as Fatboy Slim, DJ Sneak and Beardyman, and trickling out exotic edits and tracks to a now sizeable following (with nigh 50k followers on Soundcloud), Riva now reveals a new and exciting facet of his musical personality with alt-pop infused sophomore album ‘Hand In Hand’, featuring chief partner-in-crime Rsslll (previously lead singer of indie darlings The Research) plus a stellar cast of guest appearances from Horace Andy, Roots Manuva, DJ Sneak, Speech Debelle, Bob Andy and others.

Riva’s restless straddling of genres, tempos and geographical inspirations have proven to have wide ranging appeal, from unknown alternative European radio shows to Ibiza mega clubs, from bedrooms the world over to festival main-stages. And indeed, ‘Hand in Hand’ runs a broad and colourful gamut with infectiously playful irreverence, hopping elegantly between styles while offering a refreshing and uniquely personal take on classic sounds and genres. A lush, big-beat string-laden pop gem (‘Kill Me’), surf and San Remo basking noir house (‘Absence’, ‘Si e’ Spentoll Sole’), bouncy gospel-funk (‘Upside Down’), ghostly and hypnotic dub (‘In The Morning’), earworm island groove (‘The Care Song’), manic-depressive, bittersweet sing-alongs (‘Nobody’s Fool’, ‘Detox’), all have their respective place in the kaleidoscopic and adventurous musical palate of ‘Hand In Hand’.

In an era that favours well-formatted niches and strict categorization over the pure and unmediated joy of music, Riva is an adamant subscriber to the undisciplined maverick approach, proving in the process that some artists are still willing to take a risk.

A Bricklane based musical exile with a degree in Chinese literature?; a passionate family guy who manages to juggle a DJ schedule of over 200 gigs a year, a label, remix and production duties? How is it possible to pigeonhole a man who never sits still?
