Well, KAT Records reach the ripe ol' age of 21 with an exactly what it says on the tin release being the Giant Cuts EP which pays testament to the versatility that's seen the KAT label take on board varying styles & genres since it's conception back in 2007.

This 4 tracker of gargantuan proportions from edit hot shot Deadly Sins sees both classic and underground cuts getting the royal edit treatment and then some this time, mainly focusing on disco, soul & funk.

Starting proceedings we have El Afro, a wicked up tempo disco beauty with an ace afro disco conga loop, squelchy bass, clavs a plenty and love boat-esque keys & strings.....Proper!
Hot on the heels we have Shave a Pair. This absolute Loft classic gets that all important break beefed up and stretched out to satisfy all your dj & dance floor needs.

Mary's Red Hot Grooves kicks off the flip. Originally by Mary Wilson and out in '79 this rolls funk, soul & disco into one producing a monster of a dancer that is simply irresistible - Again, that the break's been stretched followed by a mighty fine arrangement that takes this track from good to great.

Last but no means least we have Get Off My Sister - Originally penned by none other than Curtis Mayfield and covered by Sisters Love in 1973. Deadly Sins firmly has the DJ in mind with this re-assembly laying the building blocks and slowly building from the break then those meltingly good vocal stabs hit followed by that riff. Soul music at it's finest !

Forthcoming on Limited 12" Vinyl late Sept 2014

MARK MILZ, Further in Fusion Radio, Germany -pretty damn good funky edit stuff !!! support 4 sho !!!

BILL BREWSTER, UK - Not sure all of them really needed editing, especially Sisters Love, which is just perfect as it is. However, the Rinder & Lewis reworking is very good, utilising the best bit of it (the drum intro) to really good effect. Having said that, I played Sisters Love on my show two weeks ago. Will play Rinder this week.

CHRIS BARKER, Deep Space Orchestra, UK - Love these - El Afro the standout for me but they're all boss as always. Nice one! Playing before Nicky Siano next month & will play some of these for sure. Shave a Pair is also ridiculously good.

STU PATTERSON, Faith, Love Vinyl Record Store, London, UK - Another winner, one edits label that constantly delivers.

IAN BELVINS, We Love Sundays At Space, Ibiza - All very solid and going straight into the "box/playlist/crate" B side is my favourite though.
