DJ HipE & Red Void – Drop The Dance Music

Catalog Number: DR025
Release Year: 1997

DJ HipE & Red Void are Brandon Smith and John Sexton of central Florida. This is their first release on Defective, but they’ve released/remixed serious amounts of stuff previously on Kram, Event, Nightshadow, Psylon, DB, Tweak, Knightlife, & PK Records.

Their sound? Let’s just say that this record is by far the phattest and phunkiest record we’ve released this year:

*old school beats with new school treats!
*retro samples galore!
*totally cool 21st century noises!
*a groove that could only come outta Phlorida!
*makes DJ Icey seem boring!

Check it out for yourself – guaranteed to “make the whole crowd bounce y’all”!

Splendid E-Zine, June 15, 1998
“Parceling out tidbits of retro-based loops and thick drum and bass tracks, these Central Floridians authenticate the use and engagement of recurrent samples tweaked via appropriate speed adjustments as a viable instrument. The repetition on these tracks provides a trance-inducing quality as they produce entertaining atmospherics. Designed for DJ’s, this hip combination of old school breakbeat and futuristic stylings equals a finely produced 12″.”
