David Jackson - Oohhyyee

Standing atop a mountain of support from Annie Mac, who made his "Airport Disco" her Hottest Record In The World and commissioned a mini mix earlier in the year, David Jackson just released his second Frank Music EP, almost exactly one year after the first. The energetic four-track affair features a brilliant blend of techno, house and disco with enough florescent flavours to leave your tastebuds trembling in electronic ecstasy. While each of the four tracks is fabulous in its own right, I'm going to stick to my favourite of the bunch, the EP's slick second offering, "Oohhyyee."

Maybe it's the breaky, uplifting and airy energy, or maybe it's the potent piano, but whatever the case, "Oohhyyee" is altogether awesome. Unlike the EP's title track, this euphoric slice stuns through a tighter, more restrained sound. It's not as overtly 80s in its albeit still radiant and splendiferous synths, instead opting to lean on more classical, organic elements in the playful piano lead and dynamic drum delivery. It's the kind of track that gets better with each listen as you learn the powerful progression, becoming one with its wonder and resplendence. Best believe this is going to kill it in the clubs.
