It's been a year and change since booty breaks duo The Stanton Warriors were earmarked for a Fabric comp, and now it’s just around the corner. ‘FabricLive 30’ is set to roll out mid-October.

In 2001 the Warriors' first mix ‘The Stanton Session’ mashed up the likes of The Streets and Busta Rhymes, and it remains the highest-selling breaks comp to this day. After laying low for a few years, they bounced back in 2005 with their bootleg refix of ‘Feel Good Inc’ by Gorillaz and a collaboration with Chicago rapper Twista ‘Pop Ya Cork’, both of which went up for Breakspoll Awards. Last year they also dropped ‘Stanton Sessions Vol. 2’, the first disc of which was a genre-defying comp, and the second disc a collection of original productions.

On ‘FabricLive 30’ Dom and Mark again display their ironclad work ethic. The album includes four cuts from ‘SS2’, but not as you might know them: 'Pop Ya Cork' douses their 2001 chart-topper 'Da Virus', while the Eska vocals from downtempo track ‘Still Here’ get a massive breaks foundation with Baobinga & ID's 'The Machine'. The Warriors also lend their breaks-heavy refix treatment to tech house cuts like Peace Division's 'Club Therapy' and Claude Von Stroke's 'Who's Afraid of Detroit?'.

"All the tracks on the Fabric mix are edited by etching stuff from loads of different scenes and putting our beats and other elements underneath them," explains Dom. “Most of the tracks are ours though. I think a kind of late night minimal booty would be the word for it."

Fellow breaks boffins Deekline & Wizard lend a hand by remixing the Warriors' ‘Dip & Get Low’, while the Warriors themselves remix Wahoo's 'Make 'Em Shake It' and King Unique's 'To The Left'. There's also a brand-new production, the score-sampling 'Bollywood Beatdown'. All in a night's work at Fabric, it appears.

can't wait for this one - should be very good

Stanton Sessions 1 was pure class breaks..Ive had SS2 on rotation for a while now but its still not biting...it has its moments esp their mix of Gyromancer..

Interested to see what their Fabric mix is like..

been meaning to give this a listen to - never really heard much of the stantons in the past - and i wasn't overly impressed with one of them at SW4.

No Robbie they were a bit pants at sw4 very commercial not what I've heard from them before. Ask Wilbur, he's seen them a lot more than me, and I'm sure he would agree.
This new mix should be good, some of the tracks on there excite me a lot, especially baobinga's machine and vonstroke's who's afraid of detroit.

oh dear is that whos afraid of detroit track on there??

not sure if i will listen when i get home

robbie y

I'd like to say its at the end or the beginning so it won't spoil the mix for you but...
