Press Release from http://www.ninjatune.net/ninja/release.php?id=646 :

Those kids, those kids, those crazy kids. Yes, for tis time and no doubt will remain time for the second volume of Ninja Tune’s rather tasty ‘Solid Steel’ mix series. And where installment one came from DJ Food and the shiny-toothed DK this blast is courtesy of Hexstatic.

Yes, Hexstatic are most well-known for their audiovisual shenanigans but you can lose the visuals and still enjoy the skillage – even a blind man can see that. In fact, Robin Hexstatic has been a long term contributor to the Solid Steel radio show and is held to be the tightest mixer in the crew because of the way he never seems to crash his beats. And if that sounds a little like too much DJ-speak, let’s just say they sound smoothy-great-lubbalicious, baybay…

While there’s the same levels of hard work and pure lurve that characterise the Solid Steel acolyte’s unhealthy obsession with music, there’s not a whiff of anorak here. Hexstatic just want you to jump up on your sofa, wave your underpants round your head and give it up, give it up, give it up. Big, bouncing gut, sweaty, man-breasts, naked style to some classic party monsters. Oh yeah.

And now we’re cooking. You’re up on the sofa naked enjoying yourself despite your natural reticence and then we drop the bomb(shell) on you. Hexstatic made the mix partly on CD decks. And before you scream blasphemy (spittle showering us and the soft furnishings) we point out that St Josh of Davis has already endorsed them and anyway, Hexstatic haven’t just used them like the old 1200s but have actually explored the technological pwossibilité (as they say) of the form. Check for the crazed time stretch effects they have coaxed from these black boxes and shout through the wall at your neighbours, "Ooh, they’re not just entertainers. They know their shit, too."

Throw in (why not?) a brand new exclusive track in "Telemetron," with specially made video on the CD, an extensive journey through the boys’ first love - electro, plus funk, reggae, rock, hip hop and must-have porn groaning and you have a killer mix. Of course you get all the Solid Steel goodies too, like special intros, custom made tracks, special edits….we’re just too good to you. In fact, you could put this on at almost any party and the place will be rocking it, rocking it. Even if it is just you and the furniture. You see – we care. We really rrreally care.
