3. Shook – Spectrum
Dutch producer Shook will be a familiar name to lots of you. We first came across him via a remix of Electric Youth’s ‘Replay‘ some four years ago – that remix was a hard hitting slice of electro funk mixing pop vocals with flexing basslines and scorching hooks. Ever since we’ve posted every track he’s produced and his latest album Spectrum is by far his best work to date.
What’ll happen to Shook in the coming years is a bit of a mystery, for the four years we’ve been following him, he hasn’t really followed the path usually set out for up-and-coming producers. He works to his own beat, and that’s ultimately why he’s so successful, only he really knows where he’s going but so far his comicbook-inspired persona has seen him create a legion of fans who are willing to back him all the way – so in reality he’s already won.
