Haven't heard this but everything Derek Howell touches turns to gold at the moment.

Has this been released?

#315682Post 3 of 18

Promos are out.

I've heard some of his stuff that I didn't think was all that good. No producer is 100% great all the time.

I'll go search for a audio clip of this and send back my thoughts after hearing it.

you guys should check out funk it if you like this one!

His 2 new EPs are blinding and 'Funk It' is just top notch. I've not heard one tune of Derek's that didn't blow my mind.

[quote=code11]Seriously, How sick is this!!! :RockOn: :RockOn: :RockOn:[/quote] the guy has some quite good productions, but i just feel like he is a bit overrated at the moment. Especially in the case of his bedrock ep - i don't see what was all the fuss about it. At best I would give it 9/10, nothing more. I only bought happy to be sad/i was just leaving, the other vinyl just seemed a little boring. I am not an expert in music production but I think it would be smart if he reduced the volume and instead concentrated on the quality of his productions :)

are you serious? all four of the tracks on that EP are production gems. all the subtleties and nuances you could want, with wanton energy pouring from thos b-lines :twisted:

the track is bangin' :RockOn:

#331355Post 12 of 18

One ot the outstanding new talents of 2004. His Proton set from earlier in 04 was superb.

#331424Post 13 of 18

i have to be honest, i wasn't impressed with this track, or funk it for that matter, but i did just pick up happy to be sad/i was just leaving, and i really love these tunes...

well, when I was hearing the tracks for the first time, I was expecting to be blown away, but unfortunatelly it did not happen. Only one of the vinyls really sparked my interest. I don't know why, maybe I will love both tracks later ... :unsure:

If you have any doubts about this guy at all wait until come again is released and then you will be back raving about this guy. I for one can't believe that you wouldn't be floored by hearing You wanna do what. This guy is unstoppable. He just seems to be getting better too.

#348445Post 16 of 18

He looks like a rising star and I hope, he won't disappear after 2005 (like many before who has made 1 pretty nice track and gone)

Re: Derek Howell - You Wanna Do What

this track is way too overrated...

sorry, that is just my humble opinion

Massive massive massive - the whole EP is class all the way with a tool for any situation.
