Last year RJD2 dropped the Unlimited EP, which featured the song "Mic Control" and these timeless lyrics: "Mic Control starts today/ Unless you wanna learn the hard way/ The get scarred way/ This is not a game/ We are not players/ We do not play." DJ Irene does not play. Look out, Atmosphere!
The latest drop from the prolific Irene Guiterrez is a mix CD of UK-style hard house that is actually comprised of two separate sets. First up is a 13 cut mix fueled by super high energy beats that goes from 0-140 fast enough to snap your head back with a couple of Irene originals and closes with cuts from Kosheen and Mach 747. That's followed by a 15 track session that's a little more varied, a little more funky and yeah, just a little fearless (a sax cover of "Careless Whisper"? - woohoo!) We also get the DJ I magic on a couple of Oakenfold tracks, Trisco's Ultra and lots more besides.
The groove is strong, so now let's see if your body is. It's time to take a ride with Miss Irene, boys & girls...
