Various Artists Fabric Live 13: J Magik

• Words: Vivian Host
• Label: Fabric
• XLR8R Rating: /10

Infrared label head and erstwhile Metalheadz pin-up boy J Magik delivers a mix for Fabric that bounces up and down like a crazy fairground ride. An excellent document of the current jump-up revival sound, the tightly wound rhythms flow from Tali's uplifting "High Hopes" through the brilliant techno/rave madness of Baron and Total Science's "Monkey See Monkey Do," from Hold Tight's housey stormer "925" through the awesome punk rock pounding of Dillinja's "Fast Car." Maximum bassline pressure for home, car or carnival.
