Track Information:
Against The Grain records are proud to present the awesome debut album from Splitloop. Those of you with a keen ear for breakbeat music should already be aware of this red hot new act from Dublin, those of you not yet in the know pay close attention. Phil & Bren of Splitloop are a fantastically talented and witty duo from Dublin, Ireland who met on a bus on the way to a Prodigy gig and hit it off after discovering a mutual respect for electronic music. Since then they have been locked away in deepest Dublin developing a funk fuelled style of breaks which has won them the respect of The Plump DJs, Tayo and Krafty Kuts amongst others.
They have released a string of critically acclaimed singles, notched up 5 bookings in the main room at Fabric, appeared on BBC Radio 1 twice and written what we feel is the best breaks album in sometime. Here On Business is not just a solid collection of block rocking breaks, they have explored alternative routes to making music and have produced a listening experience that flows effortlessly. The album features US rapper Bukue One, African rapper Marvel (Real Elements) Liz Melody and Canadian MC Curtis Santiago. Expect a cross section of breaks with a splash of downbeat diversity, it really is a corking album.
