The Outfit feat Mikey V 'Revolution' (Apollo Music Group)
The Apollo Music Group is a new label brought to us by DJ Heather, Chicago’s Dan X and Bristol’s Lil’ Mark. Between them, they’ve recorded for labels such as Classic, Hot Trax, MFF, Om and Fabric, so we know what’s in store with their new imprint. They’re not giving much away right now, but The Outfit is a secret pseudonym for a Chicago producer who has recorded for Classic and Robsoul under his main alias (we have our theories as to his identity, but for now, we’re saying nothing). ‘Revolution’ features vocals from Mikey V and sounds like Green Velvet doing house. There’s a blistering acid mix, too, in addition to another mix by Mikey himself – and the a ccapella is also there for you to tease a crowd with.
