yancey-boys-quicksand

Due out Sept 2013, to pre-order please contact us at info@conch.co.nz 

Delicious Vinyl will soon release Sunset Blvd., the all new album from Yancey Boys, the group piloted by John “Illa J” Yancey and Frank Nitt. The dynamic new collection is built around previously unheard tracks created by Illa J’s brother: the late, great J Dilla (James Yancey). With Frank Nitt’s standing as J Dilla Music Catalog Curator and the official approval of Yancey Media Group, all productions on Sunset Blvd. originate from The Lost Scrolls — the stunning cache of beats Dilla left behind. The first official single from Sunset Blvd. is "Quicksand" with features Common & Dezi Paige. And the B-Side is no sleeper, “The Fisherman” is a full-court press featuring a chorus from Vice and blistering rhymes from Detroit Serious and cuts by J.Rocc of Beat Junkies. The track is, as Frank Nitt promises, “guaranteed to make you bang your head!”

Nitt also reminds us that “this isn’t a nostalgia trip: Dilla’s beats were so future-forward that they’re right on time in 2013.”

PRODUCED BY J DILLA

SIDE A - QUICKSAND (feat. Common & Dezi Paige) 1. Vocal Mix 2. Instrumental SIDE B - FISHERMAN (feat. J Rocc, Vice, & Detroit Serious) 1. Vocal Mix 2. Instrumental

Letherette - After Dawn 12" (NINJA TUNE)

Written By 1 - August 26 2013

Available Here

Tracklist & Soundclips:
01 After Dawn clip
02 Restless (Jimmy Edgar Remix) clip
03 After Dawn (Barker and Baumecker Remix) clip
04 After Dawn (Bibio Remix) clip
05 Restless clip

The young duo from Wolverhampton are back with a new single including remixes by Jimmy Edgar, Bibio (Warp) and Berghain DJ- and production team Barker & Baumecker. Killer! After winning hearts, minds and dancing feet with their eponymous debut album, Letherette return with stand out single 'After Dawn.' This is the song from the album that perhaps represents the full length's charms best. Letherette, more than anyone else in electronic music, know how to leaven their serious intent with a big dose of fun. After Dawn is visceral dance music, but it's also cerebral. Its hypnotic, dancefloor glitch undergoes a startling transformation midway through the song, to stunning emotive effect. The remix package goes some way to revealing Letherette's standing amongst their music peers. Electronic maverick Jimmy Edgar, fresh from the success of his partnership with Machinedrum in Jets, reworks bonus track 'Restless' with frantic synth stabs, ecstatic texture and trap-edged drums. Berghain residents and ones to watch Barker and Baumecker roll 'After Dawn' out into the deepest dancefloor stormer, re-editing the song's melodic glitch and marrying it to rolling sub bass thunder. Letherette intimate and Warp mainstay, Bibio, cleverly teases out 'After Dawn's' avant-'80s-pop core, before dropping in a melody and bass line that are impossible to resist. The EP is closed out by bonus track 'Restless,' again making clear this duo's masterful understanding of dance music's vast possibilities.
