After his appearance with Kero One on ‘When The Sunshine Comes’ a couple of months ago, Ben Westbeech soul credentials are still in demand soul-funk-jazz breaks

Not an obvious one for Trevor Lovey’s house tip on the remix? Well the ‘Good To Be Here’ man gets onto a Chant No. 1 of Skeezer Pleezer jam. And with a dub version, he gets a whole 12” to himself.

On the main release, more obvious candidates A-Skillz (as in ‘Happiness/Got The Rhythm’) gets old-skool on the sample re-creation on a electro-hip-hop scratch (big!) and when it comes to breaks, Finger Lickin’ Jem Stone (aka Jem from Soul of Man) knows what to do for a ‘minimal’ remix.

But best of the lot is the Afro-funk of Lack of Afro isn’t far behind with his Latin percussive bomb version.

This is the best I think we’ve heard from Jalapeno since Dr. Rubberfunk’s Sunset Breakup EP and well worth getting both 12s.
