S.U.R.E – Here For You // Got Something E.P.

In our modern times music producers have clued into that  the best part of a tune to get the crowds attention   is the drop.  The purists out there amongst us may have mixed feelings about this psychoacoustic  “phenomena “but deep down   you sure  can’t deny the euphoric (see what I did there…)  surge of energy  a good drop gives you .  Well S.U.R.E have def got this  in mind with their cracker of a new release “Here for You”. It features on a double tracker of the inaugural release on their own label Super Uphoric. I am sure (for the love of  god stop this now …) readers of this blog will be familiar with the gents with the best kept facial hair in bass music since Longeez shaved  off his tache! Bursting onto the scene in 2023 with releases on the esteemed label  Hardcore Energy, Brick Sweat Records and a slew of  excellent  radio mixes and self releases ,S.U.R.E are top quality purveyors of feel good breakbeat ravey hardcore music.

 


S.U.R.E


I’ve been a fan since I first heard them and make a point of keeping up with their releases and mixes. I do think that “Here for You” is one of their best  tunes to date . The intro brings the energy right away, catchy bass line,  phone samples and the repeated refrain of “ I just want to feel the bass”,  for a tune the clocks in at just about 3 mins at least half of the tune is dedicated to that wonderful drop.  When that 303 line  signals the tune coming back in it’s time to hit repeat and listen again. This is a tune that so needs an extended club mix treatment , like all the tunes had back in the day eh? Wonderful stuff!

 

The tune on the flip “Got Something” is a slightly less frenetic affair. A class bit of 90’s warehouse rave nicely replicated to keep your head nodding and feet moving. On it’s own this tune perfectly fits with the lads discography, cheeky sample references to way back anthems  and a hypnotic synth riff that's made for  smoky rooms and strobes. However, “Here for you” is the one.  Please do check it out , links below , available  on a variety of platforms blah blah blah…   but somebody send me their  Shep Petibone’esque 7 minute club edit of this  soon please.
