Having been asked to produce a mix of their favourite work for BBC’s Essential Mix series, Belgian dance duo Soulwax took the more prankish route and decided instead to hand in an album of entirely new material, all riffing off the word “essential”. There are moments early on where it feels a bit gimmicky, but as they’ve repeatedly shown in the past (e.g. 00:00 Introversy), a Soulwax gimmick gets done properly. And goddamnit, the beats are infectious. Essentially.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
