Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Cajmere - The Percolator (Hesk Remix)

After a week between new episodes of Bump In The Hump there's no shortage of quality content in this special season premiere episode. It is jam packed with several artists we've been following closely from the beginning of this journey, as well as some new names that are more than worth monitoring. Not necessarily a new name, but one that's made a comeback is local footwork veteran Hesk. Earlier this year he released a hundred (yes, 100!) tracks from his epic catalog for free here, but that was just the start. Yesterday he upped that to 101 with his 160 BPM remix of Cajmere classic "The Percolator." Further, he's got an EP called My Jeep on the way and is celebrating its release with a free party at Edenhall Friday with support from SL.Y, Eytan Tobin, Walmer Convenience, Fil Jackson and Riggadale, RSVP here. Hit the perk below, grab it free here, and catch it in the mix tonight from 7-9 EDT.

I've already teased several tracks including Monday's post of "The Ultimate Warlord," which means you'll hear some disco. There's also a hearty helping of house, a dollop of DnB, a meal of midtempo, and a touch of trap and techno before we close things out with a look ahead to My Mixtape courtesy a clip of my conversation with ASHE. Don't miss out on all of this good good whole wheat Canadian craftwork with two all new hours of Bump In The Hump on Radio Humber. Listen live from 7-9 PM EDT here or catch it after the fact, cataloged on Mixcloud here.

The Immortals - The Ultimate Warlord (SanFranDisko DJ Friendly Edit)

Regular readers will know of my affinity for disco edits, so the name SanFranDisko will not be a new one. This weekend he unleashed another awesome edit, removing the key change and quantizing the Canadian space disco classic from The Immortals.

I first came across "The Ultimate Warlord" in a mix from Boy 8-Bit a number of years ago and was immediately awestruck. It is a warm and wickedly epic organ-led dance number that sits at the intersection of fantasy and sci-fi. And really, what is cooler than that? It's like a lost sequence of Heavy Metal, and perhaps this isn't much of a stretch as the magazine the film was based on shares the same timeline as "The Ultimate Warlord."

SanFranDisko's updated, DJ friendly, edit lets the magic of the original stand strong, while removing the pesky key change, and planting each beat right on cue, making it easier for mixing. That said, the life and funky groove of the original is still present. Whether through the living and breathing organ, the slew of effects and vocals, or numerous swelling risers, you can see this epic creation emerging from its vinyl grooves. As with the majority of Paul Goodyear's edits this too is available for free download, here.
