Belgium 🇧🇪’s Nickynutz returns with the Give It To Me EP, a compact yet potent homage to the frenetic energy of 1994’s golden era of breakbeat. Clocking in at just over eleven minutes across two tracks, this release is a concise masterclass in high-BPM, nostalgic-driven electronic production that still feels fresh and invigorating.

Tracks Overview

  1. Give It To Me – 05:27
    Opening the EP, this track immediately immerses the listener in a whirlwind of crisp breaks, punchy drums, and playful stabs that nod to classic jungle aesthetics. The arrangement balances chaos and precision, allowing the nostalgic influence of 1994-era breakbeat to shine without feeling derivative.

  2. Turn Your Love – 06:12
    The EP closes with Turn Your Love, where Nickynutz layers rolling breakbeats over lush atmospheric touches, merging melodic sensibilities with the raw energy of drum & bass percussion. The production is meticulous, and the track’s drive makes it perfect for both dancefloor settings and attentive listening.

Production & Style

All tracks are produced by Nickynutz, with a BPM consistently around 160, preserving the quintessential fast-paced breakbeat feel. The EP is delivered in high-quality digital formats (MP3, FLAC, and 24-bit/44.1kHz), which highlights the clarity of drum hits and the depth of basslines. There’s a tangible love for the 1994 jungle era throughout, but Nickynutz injects modern sensibilities to keep the sound relevant for contemporary audiences.
