DEVISE & DOC BROWN) ON SILENT SOUNDZ CATCH MY NEW RADIO SHOW EVERY OTHER WEDNESDAY 7-9PM ON PYROTECHNIC RADIO... WWW.PYRORADIO.COM YUNGUN & MR THING in BLUES & SOUL YUNGUN & MR THING review in DJ MAGMr Thing has honed his turntable technique to that of a fine art and know he has done the same with his production. The former Scratch Pervert is THE party DJ, with a residency at London superclub Fabric, Thing knows the tracks that truly rock a crowd. To see the effect this inside knowledge has on his own production you only need to witness what happens when needle hits the groove on one of his own tracks. Besides skills and experience, Thing has dedication like no other when it come to digging for those untouched and unrivalled samples and breaks. Not many people would dare step to him. That is why last year BBE records got him to team up the legendary DJ Premier to do a joint compilation called The Kings Of Hip-Hop. Say no more.Having collaborated with Yungun on numerous projects the pair have forged a strong partnership on record and on stage. Mr Things soulful backdrops are what provoked Yungun to drop more of his deep, thought provoking lyrics for which he is now known. Having just released their second white label together, Jackin 4 Breaks, the pair are also working on collaboration mixtape as well as their EP, GMB (Grown Man Business). Set for release on Silent Soundz, GMB showcases the diversity of Mr Things production prowess.
