SUKH KNIGHT – CHEESE LOUEEZ (True Tiger)

 

Nov. 11, 2009 by JSuave

Sukh Knight, tricky to pronounce and tricky on the buttons, has recently been at it non-stop, and this release proves no exception. From the inception, “Ganja Dub” makes no excuses for what it is: a smoked out wobbler sure to make all the ravers wonk out like bonkers when the bass line drops.

“Hands in Your Pockets” has a more chill vibe, and signature Sukh-style basslines accompany the vocal hook and a bubble guaranteed to skank ‘em out! “Lick It” is standard UK sound, big and open, Hi-mid range over bass warble, reminiscent of Skream and Benga. Next up is “Beneath Your Blouse.” This is the stand- out track for me – big, hot, and heavy! Sukh is in top form with a dance floor killer, subtle percussion riding over the top of stompy drums and a throbbing sub bass, tending toward techno. Serious weight on this one! “Up In Smoke” follows and its back-to-the- smokers vibes for the dancefloor. Strangely, it has the “6 million ways to die” sample, which seems out of place in a smokers jam. Closing out the EP is “Faith,” a journey into deeper realms voyaging near house with its off-key skank and dubbed out space chirps. All in all a solid release recommended for the smokers, DJ’s and the dancers!
