Sticky K Bringing the Heat

San Francisco's Sticky K has been tearing the roof off the mother this year with his eardrum-shattering, bone-rattling brand of electro.  His tracks are the epitome of the maximal sound that's so much fun to dance to; expect huge, nasty synth sounds layered over devastating drums and gritty bass lines, with a healthy sprinkling of horns.  I just downloaded The Weirdo, his new EP on Southern Fried Records, and I nearly lost it when I listened to the title track on full blast - it's that heavy.  On "Club Persh," Sticky K slows the pace down a bit but keeps the energy level up with the one of the most sinister sounding synths this side of the Bloody Beetroots.  Also included on the EP are remixes from Jay Robinson & Malente, Will Bailey, and Sharkslayer, who bring their own distinctive stylings to Sticky K's heaters.  You can preview all the remixes and buy the release in the Beatport player below. For good measure and 320 kbps glory I'll throw in the remix he did of the Crookers' "Para de Gracinha," which features MC Leka and is easily one of my favorite Sticky K productions.
