Press Release: Firebeatz - 2 Time's The Charm/Magic People

Alas, January is drawing to a close. New Year's awesome celebrations are nothing but a distant memory and resolutions are, for most, already falling by the wayside.
Firebeatz though are keeping up the momentum and ensuring the year gets off to a fabulous start with their January 25th release of single 2 Time's the Charm (Flamingo Recordings 2010).

The result of a collaboration between 2 talented young producers/DJs, Tim Benjamin and Jurgio Ratello, Firebeatz is primarily a house outfit. Yet the pair also blend elements of minimal, drum n bass and hip-hop to create a unique and compelling sound. Since meeting in 2008 at Tilburg's Rockacademie, where both are studying to become mixing engineers, they have amassed an impressive series of remixes, including their awesome re-edit of R.O.N.N. & Thice Santoro's What? which was released by Flamingo Recordings in December and saw some heavy club rotation. They also released their debut EP, Funked, on Azucar Recordings, receiving accolades from within the scene and some big-name support on the turntables.

2 Time's the Charm will undoubtedly be just as successful for the duo. Let its reverberating, electro-tinged moments ride you into the rest of 2010 and soon you'll be anything other than bothered that you failed to stick to your New Year's resolutions. The track's understated and intelligent structure and awesome balance between the minimal and full-bodied elements combine to create a track that has the potential to really get under your skin. B-side Magic People demonstrates a similar level of thought and high production values, building nicely to create a perfect club tune with a great sound.

The release signals the start of a busy year for the boys, with both new tunes and remixes already in development for the coming months. Can you say 'one to watch for 2010'? If you can, then you definitely should.
