Description
Jalepeno Records regular DJ Soopasoul launched his amusingly titled Soopastole Edits series at the tail end of 2016, serving up a tasty seven-inch single that boasted rock solid re-rubs of a couple of party-starting classics. He’s at it again on this follow-up.
On the A-side, he takes his rusty scalpel to Kool & The Gang’s meandering, 1970 instrumental cut “Give It Up”, emphasizing the original’s killer break and snaking saxophone lines.
On the flip he takes a similar approach to reworking Aretha Franklin’s peerless “Rock Steady”, subtly tightening up the groove whilst emphasizing the bumping nature of the original beats.
