The Heatwave – 8 Tracks
After years of hard graft, heavy remixes and countless dancefloors hyped to madness, The Heatwave have found themselves at the top of the pile – the most in demand bashment party starters in England. Fronted up by one man reggae encyclopedia Gabriel Heatwave, the collective have taken their scandalous dancehall party round the globe, mixing the biggest hits from Jamaica with whichever sounds are running the English dance scene – even creating a few sub genres (funky bashment springs to mind…) along the way. They picked us 8 tracks to reflect their sound
Stone Love are the Jamaican sound who have most greatly influenced The Heatwave; the way they juggle records was a big inspiration for the way we mix, along with the fact that we grew up with London rave music and the way that was mixed and blended seamlessly. Serious dubplates too.
