Breakbeat Paradise Recordings is proud to introduce a new act to the world of funky beats and breaks, straight from the streets of London – Mr Bristow and his main man Benny Silver on the mic. They’ve both been performing together for years as part of the live hip hop act Super Soul Soldiers, and with this new EP they’re bringing along a unique flavor that lies somewhere between classic 90’s hip hop and modern day ghetto funk.
Mr Bristow has been DJ-ing for more than fifteen years, performing in clubs all over the world alongside legends like Carl Cox, Norman Jay, DJ Yoda and many others. His mixing skills have featured on XFM, Radio 1 and Pioneer DJ Radio.
The My Life track is based on some big funky grooves and a straight up banging beat, with mc Benny Silver laying down the chords of his life into three banging verses. The package comes with blazing remixes by some of the very best producers in the scene: funky street beat master Tom Showtime from down under, soul brother beat smith Roast Beatz from the UK and B-Side resident producer from the Ghetto Funk label.

“Mash-up maestro Mr Bristow makes his BBP debut with the My Life EP – a funky chunk of Brit-hop that features his Super Soul Soldiers comrade in arms, rapper Benny Silver…”

Juno:
“When mash-up DJ extraordinaire Mr Bristow conquered his native St Albans in fine style, he embarked on a 15 year journey that has seen him win awards left right and centre whilst DJing all over the shop and even teaching the next generation of DJs in his Hoxton HQ. Here he delivers a cheeky hip-hop ditty, laden with vintage brass stabs and featuring the autobiographical raps of Benny Silver. Think a very British Fresh Prince and you’re there. Best of the remixes is Roast Beatz that ups the funk factor to 11. House party gold.”
