With appearances at HARD Summer, the upcoming Holy Ship!, multiple records on Dirtybird, and a forthcoming EP on Pets Recordings, Justin Jay’s humble beginnings as a future talent are not too shabby to say the least. Going into his last semester at USC, the 22-year-old producer can now add a world premiere on Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 show to his wall of accomplishments. Annie Mac debuted his newest remix of Disciples’ “They Don’t Know” to expose Justin Jay’s production finesse to anyone unfortunate enough to not be following him. JJ allows the remix to take on a personality of its own as he strips Disciples’ original of it’s playfulness and replaces it with a brooding counterpart. Fans can move and groove to the LA producers’ expertly hatched drum work and sulking synth melodies. Check out the premiere above and be on the look out for the official release coming soon.
House | Breach – Jack (Tittsworth & Alex Eljaiek Remix)
Posted by Spice on August 26, 2013
Yes, yes, yes; a thousand times yes. The throwbacky instant classic that is Breach’s “Jack” gets a hefty, kicked up facelift from Tittsworth and Alex Eljaiek — and they’re quite literally giving it away. Thonking, techy bass lends serious oomph to a track that was already a force to be reckoned with on the dance floor. Not really much else to say here, especially since this remix comes with Dirtybird’s official blessing. I’ve already had the pleasure of hearing this thing go down live and let me tell you: it’s the real deal.
