London club bandits Jack Beats just dropped their UFO EP yesterday and to celebrate, they’re going on tour with a smattering of dates on the West Coast this weekend. “Get Down” is the flashy, heavily adorned house single from that track, replete with fantasy crystal bells and wobble synths that may possibly break your brain with the maximalism right after you dance your face off. Phew, somebody get us an angioplasty! We’re dying for these dudes to hit New York (October 10 with Major Lazer, Crookers and Rusko, which is also going to be the day that we finally end up killing ourselves raving). Until then, they’re making their San Francisco debut with our Dubsided fave Sticky K, and as ever we got the hook-up on tickets. If you’re tryna win that, and you should (try), email jackbeats@hacksawent.com, write THE FADER in the subject line, and tell them your best story about almost raving yourself to an early end. For everybody else in SF, flyer and details after the jump!
