O B Ignitt has been played on NTS over 30 times, featured on 30 episodes and was first played on 25 July 2014.

The fact that virtually nothing is known about OB Ignitt has led to widespread speculation that he’s another pseudonym in a long standing tradition of FXHE trickery, and it wouldn’t be the first curveball the label’s thrown at its fan base. After all, it’s doubtful that those Black Eyed Peas were responsible for remixing last year’s joyously anthemic “S.E.X”, and it’s still a bit puzzling that there never really was a “Wayne County Cops” pt. 1 that preceded Ignitt’s rugged analogue collaboration with Omar-S.

But the possibility that OB Ignitt is an anagram (Big Tit No?) can be dispelled with some shrewd googling. Given Omar-S’ former penchant for cars and street racing and Ignitt’s likely geographical location in Detroit, there’s a trail of breadcrumbs on the internet that will eventually prove, yes, Ignitt is a real person. Still, his decision to exist outside of the internet deserves respect, and “Oh Jabba” proves that he doesn’t need much of an autobiography to stand amongst FXHE’s peers as one of Detroit’s formidable talents. That’s saying a lot considering the superhuman standard that FXHE’s catalogue has been operating at over the past 12 months, releasing some of the most euphoric, soul cleansing dance music in recent memory. Ignitt’s collaboration on “Wayne County Cops Part 2″ exemplified this to a tee, an emotive sugar rush full of synth-lines overtop crashing kicks and hi-hats, Detroit in full effect.
