jozif - Give It To Me

Adam Curtain’s new Trouble Maker imprint continues with its second release this December in the shape of jozif’s ‘Give It To Me’, backed with a Jamie Trench remix.

After the launch of Trouble Maker with label founder Adam Curtain’s ‘Cold Tubbin’ EP picking up support from the likes of Waze & Odyssey, Mystic Bill, Tim Paris and Diz, the imprint pushes on with its second release to date. Welcoming back London artist jozif, who turned in a remix on the first release, and is most notably known for his work with labels such as Crosstown Rebels, Exploited, One Records and most recently Music For Freaks, as well as his new project alongside Leftroom’s Matt Tolfrey, Kerb Staller.

Up first on the package is ‘Abba Acid’ and in typical jozif fashion we’re treated to funk-infused analogue driven house music with stab-led bass sequences, weighty rhythms and early electro-tinged leads running alongside an amalgamation of vocal samples. ‘Give It To Me’ follows and retains a similar aesthetic with chugging bass hits driving the composition, whilst a wandering arpeggio synth lead, swirling atmospherics and delayed snare and vocal chops meander throughout.

Rounding off the package is Roots & Bloom founder Jamie Trench’s take on ‘Abba Acid’, delivering his signature robust house style to things with heavily swung drums, resonant synth blips and the original’s bumpy bass line.

jozif’s ‘Give It To Me’ is out on Trouble Maker 9th December 2016.
