released across 2 separately packaged 12s, feeling free could be the closest thing to a summer anthem that soul music has had in quite a while !! hoop , whose soulclap updates of 90s hip-hop classics have garnered praise and plays from all angles, has worked his sample-adelic magic using jazz pianos and horns to bring fresh harmonies to an already musically rich work. coming across like a drum heavy quantic, this mix is one for the beat heads, as is its flip-side partner, which is delivered by natural self , (breakin bread /tru thoughts). as usual his drums are raw, his bass looms large and the authentic live funk feel is kept alive and heavily kicking
