World Adrift
A 5 track beats & breaks single (23m 37s) — released June 22nd 2009 on Funkhop Records
"The lovely mellow vibe combined with some nice rhymes, a positive message and a great hook make for the perfect summer listen. Definitely one to watch" Akala (Original Mix)
The debut single "World Adrift" introduces the capital's new "funkhop" collective, Phuturesonic, and is already buzzing as an early splash of funky UK sunshine for the summer and festival dancefloor. Fusing lyrical rhymes from former Full Cycle chanteuse, MelanieJane and the loud funster, MC Jon Audio, its fresh snappy beats, sweet keys and jazzy sax lets rip across all the mixes and is already being hotly tipped by Akala, Rainer Truby, Red Snapper, Aquasky, Mark Rae, Cut LaRoc, Silver Bullet, Boca 45 and Roger Sanchez.
'Really diggin' World Adrift', tight bossa hip hop perfect for
the club and the 'pod alike.. Charting @ no 5. Want to hear more..'
Scott Hendy (Boca 45 / Dynamo Productions)
Highlight of the set is the Jon Kennedy (Grand Central, Organik) Remix, melting early 90's hip hop beats with deep bass. With a sublime simplicity, this deadly version is already swinging the clubs and airwaves as Bristol's favourite B-boy strikes again! with support from Z Trip, Mark Rae, DJ Vajra, DJ Static, Rainer Truby, Florian Keller and Part Time Heroes
Jeremy Sylvester of Lovehouse Records cuts up a mean razor-sharp House mix. And with a killer Dub also included, "World Adrift" could well be one of the summer's hottest festival and genre-jumping smashes from Lithuania to Sao Paulo via Canada and Berlin.
The Drum & Bass Remix completes the set, boasting a jump up summery vibe with its dubbed out vocal swathes cutting across jazzy terrain and bigged up by Aquasky as "sounding like the past mixed with the future, and a nice track for a summer evening chill or a 6 am rave up!".
Wonderfully seasonal slice of rolling vocal funk, heralding the summer in style via warm pads, bluesy piano trills, twittering birds.... 8/10 - I-Dj Magazine
