#50 Feat. Staff Picks in Breaks / Breakbeat / UK Bass

Mike Wells has been a core part of the contemporary underground scene almost since day one. He was there and helping to shape the sound of rave, UK hardcore and jungle, then sat at the forefront of the nu-school breaks revolution. He has appeared on plenty of notable labels from Rabbit City to Lot49 to Kingsize Records, but now takes care of business himself on Force Mass Motion Recordings. The opener 'In Your Eyes' has elastic drum funk designed purely for the club with filtered vocals adding the human touch. Well-designed acid lines, big hits and smeared chords keep things dynamic as the writhing groove powers on. The fantastic 'Oh Ecstasy' will have dancers in raptures with its explosive vocal cries and rave-ready synths. The artist's signature blistering breakbeats power the track along through breakdowns and big drops, all of which build the tension to electric levels.
