Already boasting a considerably prolific 2011 to his name, rising UK funky DJ/producer Champion shows no signs of slowing down with a new EP, Sensitivity, slated for release in the coming days on his own Formula imprint and another EP set to drop early next month on Roska’s Kicks and Snares. Through it all, the folks at Dazed Digital somehow managed to reel the man in for a quick interview and a 30-plus minute mix of drum-laden gems. The mix, which blazes through 20 tracks in it’s short run, puts Champion’s own productions up against some of his best contemporaries, including tunes from Mosca, Funkystepz, Roska, Terror Danjah, and more, yielding a fine effort with enough badman riddims, stabbing chords, and powerful bass to satisfy any UK funky junkie.
