Tim Cullen & Made By Pete – Full English (Remixes) – (Grin Recordings)

Grin Recordings has been on a real roll of late, with the label’s last outing, Tim Cullen & Made by Pete’s inimitable ‘’Full English’’ a track that landed in the sets of some of the scene’s foremost DJs. And so it is that the track gets a new lick of paint here on a remix package that both celebrates the originals but gives it a really interesting angle in the process.

Up first on the EP is the sounds of Harry Romero, who turns the original into a chunky house workout that’s full of banging drums and a slew of clever percussion. Full of groove and bite, it’s a really anthemic track that’ll help the night soar to new heights. Sometime OFF man turns it into a heavyweight cut thanks to its many off-kilter vibes, whereas DJ PP gives it a more subtle re-rub. Even so, PP’s remix is arguably the standout joint, not least because of the tension that lurks throughout. Last but not least is the 2015 Remaster Remix, which acts as the cherry on top of the cake. A little bit crazy but brilliantly put together, it epitomises the sort of vibes that are in abundance here.
