Bennun & Healey are Bristol-based sound-smith Colin Bennun and DB Stereo’s DJ Tim Healey.
Their debut on DB Stereo is all guns blazing single, titled ‘Lucy’. Penned after a lost weekend at Noisily Festival 2017, it’s a slab of future/retro acid tech funk, where a hypnotic groove delivers a de-tuned and lazy techno arpeggio to hook in the dance floor. When the time-stretched “Give me acid” vocal is unleashed, the tune slams back into acid mayhem, with a double-time arp resolving into a jaw-droppingly funky psychedelic motif. Unmissable. Unforgettable.
On remix duties are Irie Bliss & Jhothi. Irie Bliss switches up the styles with journey to bassline house central. A jacking garage groove erupts into chopped up vocal harmonies before the killer bass demolishes the party. Jhothi, brings his tasty beats and bass have been turning heads this year, working with Tod Terry among others from his studio in Ibiza.
