Freeks is a twisted full on affair of the most seedy breaks, the most hectic samples strewn all over a bass guitar and electro bassline. This hybrid of breaks, indie and electro is not one to miss if you like your breaks inventive. It's one of those tracks that make your ears prick up and get you thinking "what the fuck is this" in a manner few tunes do these days. From Marilyn Manson style lyrics, wailing lead guitars, massive sawtooth electro bass as well as guitar bass and a sample that comes out of nowhere informing you are to be executed only to slam back in after some serious flanged out samples. I'm sure there are going to be very few sets of mine without this jem in it in the coming months. Label front men Koma and Bones smack out a less ludicrous remix that safely crosses breaks and electro house in their own unique way. From the first breakdown a bassline that is sure to tear the roof off any club at peak time leads the journey into their interpretation of Simon's future classic".
