Jack Beats unloads discography on Electric Zoo
With the afternoon heat in full force, Jack Beats took the stage on the 360 stage of Electric Zoo. Sporting a black cap and white tee, Beni G stood in contrast to Niall Dailly, dressed in all black. While the crowd screamed in delight to the departing Gramatik before, the duo hit the ground running with deep bass, a departure from the bluesy live guitar show of the preceding act. To help properly segue from one genre to the other, they began their set with a small introductory beat edit. With the sun beating down on both sides of the tent, the crowd began to shuffle and sway back and forth.
Jack Beats – Just a Beat (A-Trak Remix)
When it comes to refreshing productions, A-Trak has the Midas touch. Every single original or remix that he's released in the last 6 months has been impossibly funky. From his unbelievable remix of Kavinsky's "Oddlook" to his disco-tinged touches on Phoenix's "Trying To Be Cool," the Fool's Gold frontman has managed to evolve without ever compromising his style. Taking on Jack Beats for the second volume of their Remixed series, A-Trak set his sights on interspersing hip hop spirit with the techno soul of "Just a Beat," shifting the mix into a scatterbrained mess of chirpy synths and tempo shifts.
