Josh Burnett is not here to mess about. The Manchester groove merchant lands a big one on Stacey Pullen’s Blackflag Recordings with his label debut Jus’ Tryin – and it’s pure terrace heat.
Built for the heads and the hips, the title cut Jus’ Tryin rolls in with tight, bubbling percussion, chopped-up R&B licks, and just the right amount of attitude. It’s slick, it’s sweaty, and it sounds like 5am on a packed floor where no one’s going home.
Burnett’s been bubbling under in the UK for a minute, repping Manchester with a steady flow of dancefloor-driven bombs and behind-the-booth know-how. Now, with support from the likes of Jamie Jones, Capriati, and Mason Collective, he’s levelling up and spreading that UK bounce far and wide.
This one’s a proper nod to the heads who like their grooves stripped back but built to move. Think late-night energy, hypnotic loops, and warehouse-ready drums that don’t quit. If you know, you know.
We’re hyped to premiere Jus’ Tryin – the standout from the EP and a surefire addition to your summer playlists.
Stacey Pullen clearly knows a dancefloor weapon when he hears one. Now it’s your turn.
Stream it now and grab the full EP on Beatport this Friday, 11th July.
