Groove Chronicles - Stone Cold

An essential, sexy, absolutely prime tune. In my personal opinion, no Garage set should be without this. From the build up piece by piece through the spine tingling addition of the rumbling bass, this is an essential iconic tune.

Quite basic throughout, it is beautiful in its simplicity, and always instantly recognisable.

Very jazzed out, smooth and laid back, always a pleasure to listen to, and one sure to bring smiles to the faces of true Garage heads.

"Stone Cold" is a stone cold classic 2-step jam. The beautiful mellow into features smooth sax samples over rolling El-B beats and Aaliyah vocal samples sliced up throughout. Then it breaks down and the growling bass comes in before tougher beats come in to roll it out to the end of the track, bringing back in the other elements bit by bit. This track seems to be gaining momentum from the popularity of Burial, who cites El-B as an influence.
