Title:Flaming Chestrug / 1986
Label:My First Moth
Boxdub's Friend, DJ Mischief follows up last years white label remix 7" with some killer instrumental cuts which have already been getting some heavy rotation on CDR from the likes of Jon Kennedy and Gilles Peterson amongst others.

A side "Flaming Chestrug" is a straight up b-boy funk bomb, pairing some monster drum breaks with wild flutes and horn stabs for some proper dancefloor action! Things get even funkier when the track breaks down to just bass and drums for the extended breakdown, then the bongos drop and the s**t really goes off! On the flipside is "1986", a more downtempo cut which starts with some Axelrod-esque drums and bass before evolving into lush cinematic soundscapes with horns, strings and a few classic hip hop samples thrown in for good measure!

Title:Itzsoweezee / Satisfied?
Label:My First Moth
Manchester based beat-maker DJ Mischief has been up to no good, jacking a few well-known hip hop acapellas to rework for this essential release on new label MyFirstMoth Records. First up, he ditches the laid-back beats of De La Soul's '96 classic 'Itzsoweezee (Hot)' for some funky breaks and syncopated Hammond organ pops, guaranteed to get those feet shuffling on the dancefloor! Then over on the flip J-Live gets a few things off his chest over some solid jazzy head-nodding beats, with the poignant lyrics and haunting backing vocals of 'Satisfied'' perfectly matching Mischief's solid production. Limited to 500 copies worldwide.
