Leeds based producer Skins delivers another collection of jungle-inspired productions on the new offering of his Sauce Direct series, highlighting both a deep respect for the genre's foundations and a forward-thinking approach to drum programming and sound design.
Kicking off with "357" and its atmospheric synth work with chopped-up amen breaks and weighty basslines, balancing nostalgic jungle influences with a modern production style.
Coming next "Burnin Up" with intricate rhythmic patterns, gradually unfolding into warm pads and expressive vocal fragments that add an emotional edge to the track.
On the B-side, "Heat Seeker" pushes into more intense territory. Driven by relentless breakbeats and dense jungle textures, the track builds toward soaring lead melodies that evoke elements of both rave and electronic music traditions. Inspired by an 80s film, it carries a cinematic energy throughout. And finally the EP closes with a reflective mood of "The Haze". Layered arpeggios, subtle pads, and finely crafted drum work create a spacious and immersive atmosphere, providing a fitting conclusion while highlighting another side of Skins' musical palette.
All in all, this is a superb new weapon of sophisticated hi-energy bangers that won't dissapoint you at all. It comes out officially on 3rd of July and it's available on 12" Vinyl and Digital format.
