Track Of The Day: Sound Of The Suburbs - I Won't Stop (Jay Tripwire Remix) (London Housing Benefit)

With the cerebrally dissonant as its target audience, this remix of ‘I Won’t Stop’ by Jay Tripwire has perfect, off-kilter credentials. Rolling percussion, a kick at the beginning that sounds like another record being mixed in, a throbber of a bassline and vocal samples that come and go, emphasising as they do the touch of dub. The original is a little bit quicker and, I think, has a sound that resembles the bubble pop from DJ Dozia’s ‘Pop Life’ toned down. And like the original It’s unclean. Which doesn’t mean that it’s leper music, rather that it’s raw and built for some ensuing messiness. This is one of many tracks that the great Peter Hurst has held sway over. Here’s his Bandcamp should you feel so inclined.
