Bad Taste

Bad Taste is a Swedish punk label and record company that was established in 1992 by Björn Barnekow, Ola Ekström, and Robert Larsson. In 2000, Ola and Robert left the label and were replaced by Jonas Nilsson. Over the years, Bad Taste has expanded its empire to include the booking agency Bad Taste Events, artist management company OBA Management, and publisher Feeble Music. Under the collective umbrella name Bad Taste Empire, these companies work together to support artists and provide a platform for their music.

With so many stone-cold killers in the back catalogue, this next instalment in Bad Taste's Bad Company UK remix series was always going to be attention-grabbing. After all, Prolix and Delta Heavy's reworks of BCUK classics 'Oxygen' and 'Dogs on the Moon' kicked the series off in explosive fashion and we all knew the follow up would be just as umissable. First up, InsideInfo takes on BCUK's 'Torpedo'. That iconic call-to-arms-synth from the intro of the original is supplemented by serrated blades of bass and building layers of harmony drawing us towards a drop that's got dancefloor mayhem written all over it. The machine-gun volley of drums, timbre-switching breaks and savage punches of low-end crank up the madness and deliver a perfect rework for contemporary dancefloors. This hits hard. 

Then, Optiv and BTK show us what they can do with the 'Spider' stems. And, right from beat one, they deliver a lethal deejay weapon. Scientifically-deployed drums and samples in the intro give it the presence to stand alone, but with enough space for selectors to get creative with their mixing. So, watch for this being spun back, looped, doubled and manipulated in all sorts of crazy ways. Those huge sweeps of bass and the drama of the rising chords pattern have been precision-engineered for maximum hype, and this tune is an absolute essential.
