Premiere: Listen to Nitin’s Warm Remix of David Scuba & Dance Spirit’s “Prophecy”

Superfreq returns with another fantastically futuristic package, this time from label partner David Scuba with Dance Spirit, the duo of Christopher Mohn and Reagan Denius.

Revered US talent Scuba is in fine form at the moment after big releases on labels like Riff Raff, Desert Hearts and Veryverywrongindeed, as well as playing events like BPM Festival, Burning Man and the Winter Music Conference in Miami. Here he links with Dance Spirit who are known for their forward looking minimal techno and are also residents of the famous Flying Circus parties. Past releases include their inspiring and thought-provoking work on groundbreaking LP ‘The Sun Also Rises’ on Supernature, and so when added together with David Scuba this exciting collaborative outfit has a truly fresh sound.

Today we are premiering the fantastic remix of “Prophecy” from No.19 co-founder Nitin, which swarms with warm solar winds. Down low, slick metallic drums roll along and create a spooky spaced out vibe that will surely hypnotize any crowd as they get taken deep into the cosmos.

David Scuba & Finley Team Up for ‘LeNinj’ EP on Superfreq

The latest release on the esteemed Superfreq imprint comes from Mr. C’s label partner David Scuba, who has teamed up with Finley for a brand new EP  set to come out on May 30th entitled LeNinj.

Scuba and Finley’s discographies are both as prolific as they get, the former cataloguing tracks on Deserts Hearts, Family Grooves, Design Forms, NOSI Music, Veryverywrongindeed, Riff Raff, Compatible & AA Trax, while the latter sports releases on labels such as Get Physical, Nervous, Superfreq, Touch of Class, Motek, Faceless & Sullivan Room.

Their collaboration EP kicks of with “Scoofin”, which as you may have guessed is a play on the two producers’ names. The result is a great track with heavy bass, peculiar horn samples, and quirky melody sequences all coming together on a haunting pad for a dance-floor ready piece that is sure to be perfect material for any true house DJ’s arsenal.

The EP release includes a brilliant remix by Chicago’s very own Kate Simko that sees “Scoofin” transformed into a funky tech house track armed with an impressive bassline, catchy synths and bouncy sound. The result is yet another perfect peak-hour track worthy of play.

Rounding off LeNinj  is the EP’s title track. Bass is once again the name of the game here, coupled with spaced out effects and obscure vocals. The funky drums peppered throughout work extremely well, leaving the listener with no doubt as to why the track title is ninja-inspired.

LeNinj cements David Scuba and Finley as successful collaborators, as well as  Superfreq’s spot as a true forward-thinking label that is able to perfectly marry both producers’ styles and mischievous influences.

On this release, David Scuba masterfully blends the soulful and sultry with the funky tech vibes that we have come to love from him and the Superfreq crew.

For the past 13 years, Supefreq has fostered some amazing talent with an impressive musical catalog. The Low Toro EP features two original tracks: Everything delivers a heavy, hypnotic groove with massive bass and stuttered vocals, while Not Franc moves in a more minimal direction. The former track also features remixes by Pattern Drama which give an entirely new spin on what will surely be a hit on the dance floor.

Growing up in 1990’s NYC, David Scuba was raised on a proper regiment of underground house and other dance styles. He first made his moves in the industry working A&R for several labels, such as Timeless Groove and Real Music Deal. In the early 2000’s, he teamed up with Mr. C to develop the Superfreq label, and here we are today.
