I Know U Got Soul ( Leo Zero Rework )
Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at 07:47AM *Hello Troops. It's time to fasten something to your MA1 style bomber jacket and make like it's 1987...As we bring the BUMP to a stone cold London warehouse party classic: Eric B & Rakim - 'I Know You Got Soul'
After a few alterations and snips at Leo Zero's music tailoring service - we end up with a bespoke 118bpm number perfect for those Berlin mornings when daylight is poking through your converted power station / toilet / knocking shop and the horse drugs have taken their toll!
Bobby Byrd's been outed for loads of glitch edits and some sleek synths stolen from 2020 vision's sample pack... And there's breakdowns a plenty with twiddly bits for doing the pointy finger dance too when you're feeling all wobbly on the dancefloor.
As usual there's no digital on this one - vinyl only baby! Enjoy! Leo x
PS - The debut Leo Zero Artist Album 'Acid Life' is out in a few weeks - watch this space.

DJ FEEDBACK:
Can you do that to a classic? you can when it's this damn good ! - Leo Zero's remix : incredible! PETE TONG / RADIO 1
A lesson in reinvention. Could so easily have turned out to be a cheese fest but instead displays inventiveness, originality & a twisted funk sensibility. Sublime. JONATHAN MOORE / LEFTSIDE WOBBLE
Nice beatz zero , get down and boogie kinda thang . will jam with this. JOHNNY ROCK
Absolute monster! x FRANK TOPE / WILD GEESE
"Sick! Smutty production values have given this classic a cheeky twist into an hypnotic thumper! Definitely dropping this, Great work!" PSYCHEMAGIK
Very nice Leo… taken to another place. It would be interesting to think what eric b and rakim would have sounded like if they had been from berlin ROSS ALLEN / ISLAND RECS
