Heavyfeet’s new single on Stamp! Beats – Free Download!

6. July 2010

STMP004 - Release Art

There’s supposedly sunny weather on the horizon and a much needed boost in
temperature may just help HeavyFeet with their current studio-tan complexions!
Fortunately, their fourth release is here to offer the perfect accompaniment to those lazy
summer days when the good weather vibes do finally arrive.  With recent airplay on
Radio 1, 1Xtra, XFM, Kiss and Galaxy FM, and widespread media coverage courtesy of
DJ Mag, IDJ Magazine and The Times Online, Stamp! Beats is gearing up for what is
sure to be a successful summer ahead.
Sheffield has delivered some great vocalists over the years (Steve Edwards and Pete
Simpson to name two) and now breakthrough Steel City singer, MC and beatboxer, Jon
Rice joins this list. ‘Saving Me’ sees HeavyFeet take on the bubbling broken beat scene
to great effect, focusing on pulsating, chromatic synth chords, chunky, live drum breaks
and an array of traditional broken beat instrumentation as Rice (recently compared to
London vocal starlet Ben Westbeech) belts out a wonderfully simple, jazzy vocal hook.
HeavyFeet’s own Club Dub is a further take on some of their favorite dancefloor
flavours, tackling bashment, funky and breaks with their typical heavy drum sound and
ever present sub bass. Southern Fried Records’ men of the moment, Black Noise,
deliver a suitably styled summer anthem, complete with sampled disco vibes, funky club
drums and select cuts from Rice’s catchy vocal line…  it’s got Ibiza written all over it!
