"Visit Bristol and mention the name Mensah; chances are that someone's going to know the man we're talking about. Having become involved in the Bristol music scene at an early age, there's no surprise that his productions epitomize the things associated with the city's music -- positivity and progressiveness. Having already lent the bouncy number, 'Pulse 80's,' to the Hench Mixtape Vol. 1, and getting voted in the as one of the 'Top 10 Producers to watch' in the Dubstep Forum Awards, Mensah provides us with yet more reason to mark him down as one to keep an eye on in the future. The Untitled Future Funk EP is a 3-track release that provides a true insight into the depth of studio-skills this young artist has developed, touching on both the atmospheric and downright funky sides of dubstep. Already having had a track placed on the CSI TV series ('Stapleton Rd') and with all tracks receiving regular play from the scene's big hitters, we're excited to present this stunning effort from Mensah. A. '1986 Was The Future' - The synth-led chords from the outset of this tune frame it as a future classic of dubstep. Not holding back when the bassline drops, Mensah has crafted a sound that delivers a punch. A truly gripping production that keeps you locked, seeming to introduce new sounds and phrases whilst maintaining its esoteric feel. '1986 Was The Future' is going to be one of those tunes that'll have the dancefloor screaming for rewind after rewind -- and we're sorry, but you're going to be obliged to give it to them! Currently being rinsed by the likes of Plastician, Starkey and L-Vis."

"Mensah's debut release on the Hench imprint, Pulse 80's, turned heads with its stylish production and out-of-the-box approach. His follow-up release, Untitled Future Funk EP, was all the talk on the blogs and his remix of Baby D's 'Let me be your Fantasy' has been hailed as one of the hallmark dubstep tracks of 2010. With each new release Mensah's studio skills and fresh thinking stand out ever clearer. This latest offering will be no disappointment. A dreamy synth-line commences 'Digital Dreamer', which immediately sets the scene for one of Mensah's more ethereal productions. The harmonic lead-line builds into an other-worldly riff before releasing that tripped-out, bouncing bass rhythm. Synths let loose overhead, twisting and turning the track into the funky number that it is. Once again, something different from the man like Mensah."
