Simultaneously an old-school master and a groundbreaking futurist, British producer Steve Spacek is one of those artists who seems to transcend era.
He has worked with Dilla and Common, and his band Spacek remain one of the most beloved acts from broken beat. On his most recent record, Houses – out on Henry Wu’s Black Focus imprint – he delivered a masterclass in jazz-indebted house music.
His Crack Mix, composed solely of his own productions, moves through many of these guises: a house-y stomp to begin with, before touching on some Afrobeat collaborations and finally some dub and broken beat concoctions. A silky, constantly shifting mix from a true gem of UK music.
