DESCRIPTION:
3 Track EP With Old School Licks - Following an appearance on the Slacker 85's inaugural various artists EP earlier in 2023, Jackmaster returns to Seth Troxler’s celebratory new label with a full EP, ‘Party Going On’. Showcasing a trio of tracks worthy of the Glaswegian DJ and club music expert’s instinctive, genre-spanning DJ sets and also including a new remix from Tom Trago, thoroughly tried-and-tested internationally.
Playful, powerful and elasticated with the Chicago influences that bounce close to his heart, ‘Party Going On’ unfolds as a Jackmaster calling card, a pleasure-seeking anthem built around a rousing B-girl vocal from singer Yvonne, responsible for a series of cult singles on New York’s prolific and influential house label, Cutting Records. With the assistance of a supremely cheeky original synth line, one that wouldn’t fail to move a crowd in any discotheque from 1989 until now, ‘Party Going On’ sees Jack Revill bridge generations of dance floors with contemporary energy.
On the sturdy, sensual 'Freaky Like That', Jack teams up with longtime collaborator & regular B2B partner Jasper James, to pay homage to the outsized deep house of MK, Cajmere or Todd Terry with a seductive arrangement that builds and explodes on command, simmering and swinging towards valleys of jack that anchor then shake ravers with a powerful kick-drum.
Finally, old friend and trusted voyager Tom Trago takes ‘Let’s Go’ on a cosmic journey. Initially appearing as a rolling anthem on the initial Slacker sampler, the versatile Dutchman’s extended reinvention offers a no-less than fifteen-minute trip that masterfully touches on territories including cosmic disco, Jersey garage and acid house.
Continuing a mission to showcase the oddball, esoteric and diverse sounds that inspire Troxler, Jackmaster’s first solo EP perfectly captures the bubbling energy of Slacker 85’s vision. No posing, no pretense, just party.
After necessarily taking time out for personal reasons, Jackmaster is slowly but surely getting back to where he was a few years ago. The party-staring Scot was a real DJ circuit favourite who also knew how to kick out the jams and that's what he does here for the fourth release on the Slack 85 label which debuted last year under the auspices of a certain Seth Troxler. 'Party Going On' is pure fun - a flaming hue cut with an impossibly catchy and pitched-up vocal. 'Freaky Like That' (with Jasper James) is surging Detroit house music with analogue drums and 'Let's Go' (Tom Trago Remix) is a dirty, loopy disco house cut and we love it.

Last FM Information on Jackmaster
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
As well as being the co-founder of Numbers – one of the UK’s fastest rising record labels and party planners – Jackmaster is one hell of a DJ. Having absolutely obliterated the final segment of this 2010’s Sonar By Day festivities with his unrelenting selection panache, he proved as adept at maiming big crowds as he is at keeping those London basement venue goers from hanging around outside smoking.
For Jack, turning in epic 6 hour sets at your friends’ 30th birthday party is his lifeblood – the man literally lives to play records for people – and his eclectic sets skip through everything, embracing guilty pleasures and forgotten classics in the same breath as he does unreleased dubplate heaters.
With the Numbers label housing the elite of today’s producers – Deadboy, Redinho, Jamie xx, Untold & Roska, SBTRKT, Lazer Sword, just for starters – he’s steadily building his reputation as a taste-maker within the bastardized swamp of bassed out club music, as well as being one of the most emphatic party selectors.
With residencies in his native Glasgow and at London’s sturdy underground institution FABRIC, as well as parties happening sporadically around the globe – from Barcelona and Paris to Tokyo – there’s plenty chance to experience him for yourself. The announcement of his forthcoming contribution to the esteemed FABRICLIVE mix CD series and recent bookings at some of the most respected of clubs like Optimo, FWD>> and The Berghain, whilst being voted in as Best British Breakthrough DJ of 2010 (DJ Mag), have only cemented his stranglehold on the dynamics of a soundsystem and as an alumni of 2010’s Red Bull Music Academy, you can guarantee this is just the start for the incredibly coiffured DJ.
