Shakes Interview [Originally From This Is Breaks Blog]


Hi Shakes. You've been picking up plaudits from some big breakbeat players for your new single, including the likes of Rennie Pilgrem and Left/Right in the US. What is it about Gangbusters that makes it stand out from your previous work, do you think?


I think it's the track where all of the little essentials have started to click: writing in key, composition, mixdown. While I was making this one I learned a bit of music theory so synth lines were easier to program and everything fits properly. It ended up more tearout than I intended, but the squeeling bass line gives it that raw energy that sends people crazy. A few amen edits and air-horn samples and everyone's happy! I've still got more to learn through experience and, like most people, I'm even more excited about the tracks that are yet to be released.


Shakes - Gangbusters [Previews] by Supatronix

Can you tell us a bit about yourself? What are you doing when you're not in the studio?

Haha, when am I ever in the studio? I'm a London, UK-based teacher, so the day job and education of today's youth has to be put first and the production work tends to wait for the holidays. I enjoy cooking, climbing, disc golf (google it), Studio Ghibli fims, long walks on the beach and a GSOH (ooops wrong site).


Who are your main influences in dance music and how have they affected your sound?

I admire the dubstep producers like Skrillex and SKisM (shout to NSD) who have brought musicality and melodies to their scene to accompany the incredible noises, but if they had influenced me I guess I'd have tried emulating elements of their music and I wouldn't know where to begin. Like a lot of people that started on the future jungle thing I guess it was RackNRuin and Skream that were the only references when I began making Gangbusters. There's a lot more out there now and I'm stuck a little between two main branches of the sound. I'm peeling away some of the noisy midrange and trying to find the right balance of the smooth bass and tight, clear high end of RackNRuin and the energetic, but less crisp, sounds of Pyramid. Both have it spot on, but in different ways, and there are limits to having the best of both worlds.

The future jungle vibe is starting to reach some sort of maturity. How do you think it will change over the next couple of years and who are your favourite artists pushing this sound?

It is great to see the old breaks back, but it will evolve quickly until they eventually disappear for the next generation to rediscover. The limited break samples that fit the style mean that we are already seeing the wiser people develop their own sound and not get caught up with simply using an amen. Pyramid and others are beefing up their beats and taking us to a faster and more polished version of the old tearout sounds in many ways. Some people are managing to create a jungle feel without the original samples and others are taking influence from future garage, dancehall, soca etc. which is great.

The people that have got it right for me this year in the breaks scene are 601, Yoof, Schema, Jurassik and (as if I haven't mentioned them enough) Pyramid. There aren't many labels that can be relied upon to bring this sound at a high quality, but there's stuff coming from every corner. It's interesting searching round and finding tracks mis-labelled as drum & bass on beatport by people who just happen to dabble in their version of the sound, e.g. Redlight, Warrior One, Herve, Submerse, DJ Fresh, Rusko, Baxta, Skream, Chase & Status etc.

What's up next for Shakes? Any grand ambitions?

I really want find the right person to do a vocal collab with by next year. I've got a remix I need to get done for someone I'm quite a fan of and more Supatronix remix work, including my first official dubstep tune. There's a couple of deep, but very different originals I love and am just trying to work out the best way to release. Unfinished stuff includes some collaborations with Mr Jurassik and a new 'post-dubstep' stripped down project that will hopefully turn into an EP under a different name next year.

Cheers TiB.

Keep it foolish!

Not only is Sub Slayers bossman Jay Cunning proud as you like to present release number 10 but it also features the legend that is Ellis Dee who has been a long time hero of Jays from his sweaty days as a loony raver!
But we digress, onto the beats…. Teaming up man of the moment Dj Twista along with the vocal talents of Marie Louise the guys have come up with what can only be described as a true anthem! Sweet chords, hooky vocals, slammin beats and an insane amount of energy will see this release tear thru the ranks with full on hands in the air appeal!

Shakes Gangbusters [Supatronix] Out Now


Shakes Gangbusters [Supatronix] Out Now


Shakes - Gangbusters [Previews] by Supatronix


Shakes - Gangbusters, ia a roaring breakneck slice of 140bpm
jungle with more energy than a Red Bull factory and plenty of 1930s gangsta attitude. We're talking James Cagney, not Guy Ritchie. Bang bang, not brap brap!

Remixes come from Jurassik, recently named by Beatport on the site's annual list of producers to keep an eye on, and
the mighty Gella, known best for his firing releases on the mighty Sub Slayers label.

Jurassik ways in with a deep, Reese-fuelled 140 jungle
roller, while Gella takes things in a heady, atmospheric direction. All these tracks sound great on a big system and continue a year in which Supatronix has come bursting through the barricades, with the label's two most recent tracks listed as No 1 by Beatport on their weekly "must hear" rundown.
