TBHH028 Delinquents VS Cupra - What Have We Done

And finally we have our last release of 2020! The boys have teamed up with Cupra for this one and what a track to end the year with!! It features a rolling bassline with plenty of psychedelic sounds, stabs, energetic hooverish noises and a catchy vocal hook that will see you through to the breakdown (which has an Alice In Wonderland/into the rabbit hole kinda feel to it with it’s Green Velvet vocal). Then enters a rasping mammoth of a main lead to steal the show before disappearing behind its filter as the “Pills & Rils” vocal starts, then it slowly builds upwards adjacent to the acid line, each reaching their peak just in time for an intense kick back that’s filled with that lovely squeak of a screaming acid. Throw in some more hooverishness and the vocal hook once again and we’re at a cheeky extra section that may catch you out… Remember folks, count your beats!!

What Have We Done

TBHH028 Delinquents Vs Cupra - What Have We Done (SAMPLE)

Seanie Jackson is a young Irish bad lad who is in his prime. He has made waves as a fresh face within the Hard House circuits with his mixes and productions such as Rok Da Discotek (which reached the top spot in the Toolbox Top 100 Chart and had a glowing review in Mixmag), his exclusive bootleg of Ian M’s - Temptress (that has been tearing up dance floors nationwide by DJ’s alike), and his mighty remix of Trauma – Wanna Ride (released within the Paul King remix bundles on the infamous Vicious Circle label), also with releases featuring on Encoded, Hammerheads and We Love Hard House.

In his early days, his career was catapulted by featuring regularly for London’s infamous Twist. He was a firm favourite in their Twist Test Lab which prided itself on showcasing new and fresh talent, hosting competitions that earned the winner a slot in the main room, which he succeeded in winning and made his main room debut for them in 2018.

He has also featured at events around the country such as Fuzed & Shine, and with residencies under his belt for local underground nights in the Leeds area such as K-Zone, he has now started venturing further afield, featuring on line ups for some of the scene’s other heavyweights’ such as Frantic.

Seanie is a favourite guest on the Hard House Sunday Sessions show on Flex FM in London, and was also a part of the previously mentioned Shine’s last ever event in Birmingham with one of his Delinquent brothers Adam Butler. He has collaborated with Paul King, and has had tracks feature on Paul’s ‘Trauma XX’ & ‘Trauma XX Remixed’ albums.

In 2020 he formed the Delinquents alongside Aaron James & Adam Butler, who have stormed the charts with several number one’s, including huge remixes of ‘Dammit Janet’, ‘Who Killed Kenny’ and ‘Odyssey’ as well as original tracks such as ‘Count Your Beats’ & ‘What Have We Done’. As his productions were evolving, he earned himself a booking with Billy Bunter’s Unity In The Sun over in Kavos, Greece, and was approached to be involved with both Vicious Circle’s & Toolbox’s 20th birthday projects featuring further original and remix releases on their respective albums.

During the Covid pandemic he played on multiple live streams for Hard Culture, Hi-Five, The Union & K-Zone as well as having guest mixes feature on the illustrious ‘We Love Hard House 6HR mix’ series and ‘Resurrection’s Spotlight’; he also secured himself a bi-weekly slot every other Thursday evening, playing the 6-7pm slot on the Global Hard House internet radio station.

Since then he has been having a break from his music to focus on parenthood with the birth of his little boy, but is now back to doing what he loves most and is ready and raring to go!! Him and the Delinquent lads now have a string of new releases signed along with several studio dates both solo and collaborative lined up, with fresh new bookings in the pipeline to match so keep your eyes and ears peeled for more info on all of these as the year unfolds. He looks forward to seeing you on one of those dancefloors real soon 

Cupra / Agent Jack, (real name Paul Norris) hails from South Yorkshire, UK and has been a dedicated purveyor of tough electronic music since his teens.

Heavily influenced by late 90’s Acid/Techno, Hard House, Hard Trance and anything in between, He has clocked up hundreds of releases under various guises over the last 15 years. Releasing on some of the most iconic UK Hard House labels including Tidy Trax, Tripoli Trax, Tinrib, Vicious Circle to name a few, along with his own imprint Slingshot Recordings.

Aaron James is a household name in the world of Hard House. He is a Flex FM artist and has played all over the UK and is a regular favourite with some of the scenes' most established promotions, some of which have taken him overseas to places such as Ibiza, Kavos, Australia & New Zealand, whilst holding his residencies in the UK.

His career started within the Brixton underground circuit in 2007, and quickly acquired residencies for multiple promotions in the infamous but now closed Club 414. Off the back of these residencies he then started to get bookings further afield at promotions such as Frantic, Glow Ball & Twist which saw him journey beyond the underground Brixton & Vauxhall circuit, and lead him to playing the closing set of Judgement Sundays in Eden’s main room in Ibiza at the age of 18.

Being a massive vinyl junkie, Aaron is renowned for his abilities on the wheels of steel, even more so for some of his vinyl mixes (check out his soundcloud). 

He has had a plethora of releases on all of the industry’s top flight labels since he burst into the charts in 2013 including his own album (Toolbox Toolkit 19). He is now label manager of Toolbox Hammerheads, and has been producing under various different aliases over the last decade, including Forbidden Friends, Delinquents, JNR and BabzookaZ.

With DJ Skol, he has hosted the weekly Hard House Sunday Sessions show on Flex FM; which is London’s only legal Hard House dedicated radio show at 101.4 on the dial, with accredited listeners worldwide reaching as far as Japan, South Africa, United States and their down under crew in Australia & New Zealand. Throughout the years they have earned their personal sponsorship from Toolbox Digital Shop, the main music distributor within the Hard House scene, where they alternate a featured chart countdown of the best selling tracks from the preceding month/year within their shows on the airwaves.

Having finished his degree in sound engineering & music production at Point Blank, he is now focussing on his newest project… The Aaron James USB!!! Complete with his back catalogue of tracks and entire ‘mixography’, including all of his unreleased tunes and mixes, but also with fresh unheard material, where he puts into practice all that he has learnt in his degree and begins his journey engineering his own music.
