It took two separate and amazing entities to create what the world now knows as Jack Beats. Firstly, there was Beni G from the highly popular Mixologists. These self proclaimed 'leaders of the true school' and all round hip-hop connoisseurs made a name for themselves before you even looked at turntables and still rip shit to this day. Then came Plus One, spawned from the widely recognised Scratch Perverts, a man who describes his sound as that of 'a cat been hoovered up by a group of angry trolls' and is known by every worthwhile face on the DMC circuit.
While amazing in their own individual worlds, the bang the duo made when they merged was impossible to anticipate, even for themselves. Since their newest alter-egos initiation to the dance music world, they've racked up an amazing number of collaborations, toured worldwide, featured on Radio 1 and become a household name for any punter who likes their house music bassed out and versatile. So what brought us to our knees and has us typing this shit frantically, desperate to force feed you with some audible goodness? They've just done an Essential Mix for Pete Tong's famous Radio 1 slot and its straight up amazing. Wait, it's more than amazing - it's beyond anything our words can hit you with. The only way this tape can get justice is if you play it repeatedly for the next 48 hours - even longer if you still don't have a clue who Jack Beats are...
