The latest salvo from the Beats House Records camp is this – a vinyl 45 featuring Djar One’s remix of Île de France-based Svinkels’ 2021 cut Rapido. And with a name like that, UK residents of a certain vintage may be disappointed to hear that this isn’t a tribute to Antoine De Caunes and his ‘leetl’ Eenglish chumz.’ What they won’t be disappointed with however is Djar One’s execution

SVINKELS: Rapido (DJAR ONE remix)(Ltd. vinyl 7″)
MC RYT: Cheer Song (Prod. DJAR ONE – cuts KESTA)(Ltd. Vinyl 7″) + video
New from Djar One’s Beats House label is latest vinyl 7″ Cheer Song featuring Japanese MC RYT of the Serpat crew. I don’t know what he’s saying, and the French lyric video isn’t much use for someone with only GCSE French (even if that was augmented recently by watching all 8 series of The Spiral a.k.a. Engrenages) but the energy on this is infectious and I reckon B-boys and girls will

INCREDEEPLE, KESTA & DJAR ONE: Beats House Records Xmas 2021 Mix
The period between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day isn’t traditionally a time for stuff to hit the monkey’s virtual doormat but when this traditionally-themed mix from the Beats House Records crew did make it through the letterbox on Christmas Eve, it seemed rude not to post about it. Of course, few were going to be reading on Christmas Eve or Day and on Boxing Day – what

DJ COSM feat. SADAT X, EL DA SENSEI, PRINCE PO: Rules b/w (DJAR ONE remix)(Vinyl 7″)
Rating: Right, let’s get back to the Rules with Dragon Fli Empire’s DJ Cosm laying down some snarling stripped-back boom-bap and getting battle-hardened veterans Sadat X, El Da Sensei and Prince Po to explain what it takes to be a proper MC. And as X points out – things were rather different if you came up under Grandmaster Caz than these days when, “anything will pass.”

DJAR ONE: Rescue Me b/w Bar-B-Q (Vinyl 7″)
45 soul edit/ re-works are bigger than ever right now and a man who always knows what’s good on that front is Le Havre’s Djar One who comes through with two biggies right here. First up is a Fontella Bass’s Rescue Me – an evergreen a peak-time party bump and now fully rebooted with a funky drum underpinning to give it that extra boost. On the flipside is another edit of Wendy

DJAR ONE: Oye Como Va b/w Dance Dance (Vinyl 7″)
Rating: Oye como va, readers? Really – good – glad to hear it! And things’ll be going even better when you catch the news that Djar One is putting out a double set of Latin edits on 45. Side A is, of course, a funked-up version of Tito Puente’s evergreen Oye Como Va with additional drum breaks giving it some extra dancefloor weight and the chance to add a top-rock to your

First up is a supreme-ly beat-match friendly take on the Holland-Dozier-Holland-penned You Keep Me Hangin’ On as sung by everyone’s favourite Motown girl group. Meanwhile, on the flip you’ll be feeling the drums as some heavyweight

DJAR ONE: Beggin’ b/w Stranger In My Arms (Vinyl 7″)
I’m beggin, beggin’ you-oh-hooh, won’t you make a forty-five edit of some rather big old northern soul tracks? Hmm – alright it doesn’t quite scan doesn’t it? Happily there are no such issues with either side of this sureshot 45 from the man Djar One (which follows up his last 45 edits), both of which groove like a bastard. Well obviously, they would since the source material consists of a brace
