(ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

If I was ever going to sample a tune, I don’t think Del Shannon’s ‘Runaway’ would be top of the list  (ask your grandparents, never mind your parents).  However, electro stalwarts Mason have given it a bash to great effect.  It might be a love it or hate it track but I think it works kind of well.  Give it a try but if that doesn’t float your boat, get stuck into the other track ‘Let’s Get Ferretic’ which is just superb.  Chunky tribal beats, with great synth loops that are filtered and tweaked all the way through to bring us some manic sounds.  You’ll certainly not hear many tracks like either of these.
8/10 (SM)

The monkey’s name is ‘Exceeder’, the troublesome beauty carried by one of the most creative yet underrated DJs on the scene – technically flawless with musical roots in hip hop and classical, finely tuned at a ringtone sweatshop in downtown Amsterdam, Mason knows how to rock a party.

He brings a sack full of melodic bangers and basslines, but don’t miss the subtleties of his arrangement. The live show is being lovingly prepared at the Silo – be ready for what’s in store – that monkey is going down!

What Mason’s been up to…

‘They Are Among Us’, artist album set for release this Autumn, feat. tracks with Roisin Murphy and Sway

‘Open Your Mind’ (Usura) remix receiving support from David Guetta, Wally Lopez, Armin Van Burren, Arthur baker, Grum, The Scum Frog, Jerome Isma-ae, Dave Seaman, Funkagenda

‘You Are Not Alone’ receiving support from Pete Tong, Tiesto, Laidback Luke, Ferry Corsten, Mylo, Chris Lake, Sander Klienenberg & Above and Beyond. Featured in Mixmag, iDJ and Heavy Rotation.  Nearly 60,000 views on youtube.

Mason mixed the ‘Animal Language’ covermount CD on DJ Mag’s May issue. Received to great acclaim.
