New York, NY. (DJ Magazine) - The world's Biggest Breaks Act and DJ Magazine Top 100 DJs - the STANTON WARRIORS will be playing select North American dates in support of their new mix CD FABRICLIVE: 30 Stanton Warriors out now. Unfortunately there's no NYC date. Where has the breaks-love gone?
Genre spammers and breaks pioneers, Stanton Warriors (aka Dominic B. and Mark Yardley) met while working at the seminal garage label 51st Recordings. Natives of the Southwest UK and increasingly sick of contributing great work to other artists, they knocked heads, pooled resources and fashioned a pair of renegade tunes fusing the random playful hustle of nu-breaks with the sweeping good looks of early garage. It was to be the birth of breakbeat intelligence.
'FABRICLIVE 30' delivers what the Stanton Warriors do best: some of the best seamless boompity boomp boomp booty-shaking grooves ever cut to plastic. Slide Spank Rock up against Booka Shade, throw Old Skool Junx next to Deekline & Edd Solo, shimmy Freeform Five alongside King Unique, and create a genre-bending club ready mix of exclusive up-front breaks mashing special re- edits against a hiphopcumMiamibootyelectropunk landscape. It's a line up of unusual suspects, yet still manages to echo pure Stanton Warriors, with the duo producing exclusive cuts, blends and re-imaginings, all with that special breakbeat work down.
'All the tracks on the Fabric mix are edited by etching stuff from loads of different scenes, putting our beats and other elements underneath them. Most of the tracks are ours though. The sound is sexy in a subtle way, it bounces like booty breaks does. I think a kind of late night minimal booty would be the word for it.' -Dom, Stanton Warriors
