Impeccable Flows by DJ Andypop – A UK Garage Gem from Italy
Alright, let’s talk about Impeccable Flows by DJ Andypop. Released back in 2014 under the Elastica label, this album is a proper nod to the UK Garage scene but with that Italian twist. It's not your typical electronic release—there’s something kinda raw and alive about it, like it’s got its own heartbeat.
The album features four tracks, all remixes or versions of the title track "Impeccable Flows." Now, I’m not one for long-winded reviews, so I’ll cut to the chase: two tracks stuck out for me big time—the De Niro Remix and the Original Mix.
First up, the De Niro Remix. Man, this one grabs you right away. It starts off smooth, almost too chill, but then BAM—it drops into this groovy bassline that just begs you to move. There’s a cheeky little synth riff in there too, bouncing around like it doesn’t take itself too seriously. Honestly, it feels like being at some underground club where everyone knows they’re part of something special. You can tell DJ Andypop put thought into how this remix flows (pun kinda intended). It’s got layers, man, and every listen reveals something new.
Then there’s the Original Mix, which is more stripped-back compared to the remixes. It’s less flashy, sure, but don’t sleep on it. The beat hits harder here, and there’s this subtle tension-building vibe throughout. Like, you’re waiting for it to explode, but it never quite does—and somehow, that makes it even better. It’s moody without being overbearing, perfect for those late-night drives when you’re lost in thought.
I gotta say, though, the whole thing feels cohesive despite having different remixes. Each version brings something fresh while staying true to the core sound. That’s no easy feat, especially in electronic music, where things can get repetitive real quick.
What surprised me most? Probably how much personality shines through. Even though it’s instrumental, you can feel DJ Andypop’s stamp all over it. Oh, and fun fact—it came outta Italy, which isn’t exactly known as a hub for UK Garage, right? But hey, maybe that’s why it works so well. Sometimes stepping outside the usual scene gives you room to play.
So yeah, if you’re into UK Garage or just looking for something vibey to throw on, give Impeccable Flows a spin. Just don’t blame me if you end up dancing alone in your kitchen. Weird flex, but I’d totally respect it.
