Lee Webster - Freaky Bitches x Detroit Cheeky Things

Here are two of my favourite tracks from Barcelona-based producer Lee Webster's forthcoming EP, which is set for release June 4th on Glasgow Underground. 'Freaky Bitches' is a groovy piece of Deep House that samples The Notorious B.I.G.'s classic 'Nasty Boy', which has been getting lots of support from the brilliant Waifs & Strays. 'Detroit Cheeky Things' on the otherhand is a sexy Nu-Disco track, which is dripping with funk from start to finish and is accompanied by the most wonderful vocal. Great release.
