The Drip / Roland’s Revenge (Hexadecimal Remix) by Groove Allegiance out on 12” now!!!!
This is the first of 2 vinyl sampler’s taken from the forthcoming ‘The Shirk Off’ compilation CD mixed by The Groove Allegiance. The CD is a showcase of the best from Splank! Records past, present & future, featuring tracks and remixes by Moston & Malente, Strider, Drumattic Twins, Nick Thayer, Darftphunk & Groove Allegiance ... and many more.
‘The Drip’ is classic p-funk breaks - straight beats, electro stabs and cut up hip-hop vox groove the track along, whilst the gritty bass line pins everything together. Live guitar and more jacking synth line work are introduced later on in the track, which keeps the track funking along right to the finish.
For the flip the in form Hexadecimal step up to remix last year’s smash ‘Roland’s Revenge’, fresh from picking up their best breakthrough DJ gong at this year’s Breakspoll, Hexadecimal take the track into tough acid territory, using a deep bass and tight percussion, this track will blow socks off once heard on a loud system.
Go on then, have a listen,

Here’s some press & DJ’s we’ve cunningly bribed…
“As a taster from the soon-come “Shirk Off” Splank! Records compilation, label kingpins Groove Allegiance feed us “The Drip”. This label excels in P-funky breaks and this lead track boasts a rude electronic b-line, a hip-hop vocal sample, Parliament stabs and a wicked slo-mo breakdown. Perfect part-starting fodder. On the flip, the Best Breakthrough DJ at Breakspoll revisits the “Roland’s Revenge” monster from last year. Crunked breaks and rude bass do justice to the original” 4.5/5 Dj Mag
Roland’s Revenge (Hexadecimal Remix) Dancefloor Destroyer DJ Mag May Issue.
