Filthy Beats



Run Riot, aka Tom Young, has only been around since the start of the year, but man is he moving fast. His EP 'Charge' came out on the 25th May, on his own WEARELIVE label. It's packed full of unrelenting bangers, dirty as you like. The sort of tunes that make me to do a weird punchy dance, that has got me into quite a lot of bother in clubs in the past. It's totally involuntary, but try telling that to the big fella next to me, whose kidneys I just whacked.

Anyway, 'Charge' has been picking up some good reviews from DJs and in the press. Mixmag said -
'Mixing house with breaks, samples with synths, all 4 tracks are varied in style but a consistent theme remains throughout, they are gritty and tough!'

Which is probably better than I could put it.

Charge is available to buy on Amazon MP3, I-Tunes, Juno Download, Rhapsody, DJ Download and EMusic.

Check out his Myspace for previews of the tracks.

Here's a couple of tunes that aren't on the EP, but give you a good taste of what Run Riot is all about. Banging, smash your head up, punch the air kind of stuff, basically

Run Riot - 'Everybody Needs A Bassline'
Run Riot - 'Disco Itch'

We're hoping to get Tom into the comfy chair soon, so stay tuned
