Cutting his lane at the junction of oddball party music and deconstructionist boogie, Oyefeso’s maiden sortie floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. A weird, buzzing slab of body-jacking electronics that doesn’t play by the book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn off-road bouncer of a track, the opening number ‘Matt’ has us nodding our heads to a high-in-vitamin mix of jacking house programming and erratic acid patterns gone astray. Knee deep in 303-marinated puddles of psychedelic squelch, Oyefeso keeps swinging the pendulum between a proper syncopated 4x4 motif’d framework and frantic digressions into an abstract-leaning headspace. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 ‘Kool’ opts for a further sliced-and-diced rhythmic line of action, generously infused with twisted Rephlexian phrases and sustained waves of micro-house clicking. Topping off that strange journey, the title-track ‘Lagerfeuer’ merges polyrhythmic intricacies with a forward-moving, earwormy kind of linear groove, all laced with a spooky baseline that stretches out into a purgatory of frankly eerie dissonances. Enough with the words, just jump on board Ben Oyefeso’s ghost train for a seriously tortuous, nonconformist ride across dance music’s jagged ridges and most secret crevasses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* Tracklist: \u003cbr\u003eA1 - matt\u003cbr\u003eA2 - kool\u003cbr\u003eB1 – Lagerfeuer\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Press Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42795119837340,"sku":"TPG011","price":16.11,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/146008-tpg011-FRONTCOVER.jpg?v=1699116648"},{"product_id":"larry-june-cardo-the-night-shift-cd","title":"Larry June \u0026 Cardo - The Night Shift [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: CD\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue No.: ERE996  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode: 197342404402\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRelease Date: 12 Jan 2024\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre: Rap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJewel Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout: \u003cbr\u003eLarry June \u0026amp; prolific producer Cardo have joined forces once again to bring you their latest masterpiece: \"The Night Shift,\" a nocturnal adventure that takes you on a ride through the vivid and pulsating streets of Larry's life, as brought to life by Cardo's distinctive production.

Just too good…\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorth the price of admission alone, and likely the reason you're all already drooling about this release, the mellow, dramatic beat of \"Image\", Brian Bennett's opener and title track, is a Jaylib-sampled firecracker. A reflective, scenic underscore which grows to full orchestra and ends as it begins - it's just beautiful. Next up, swoon to \"The Little Orphan\" by Neil Richardson featuring strings and harp. It's a deeply emotive, sweeping orchestral piece. Just straight gorgeous. It's followed by \"Paradise Island\", a lush, horizontal Balearic gem courtesy of Gordon Rees and David Gold; it'll send you into a blissful reverie with its elegant strings and gentle drums. From the same pair, \"Forbidden Fruit\" is, again, string-drenched but the strings are more insistent, stabbing even, and, with drums and Blaxploitation guitars high up in the mix, it's definitely a funkier proposition. \"The Enchantress\", again a Rees-Gold special, is a slower, groovy, synthy wonder. Closing out the A-Side, \"Phenomena\" is a mysterious gem, a Gold solo effort set at a breezier tempo with propulsive percussion and head nod, fast-paced breaks with ace keys. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlip over for \"Infinite Expanse\", John Scott's dramatic panorama adorned with proud, triumphant horns. Scott's \"Static Objects\" paints patient, pastoral scenes; there's a serenity and stillness to the proceedings. Next up, Be With favourite John Fiddy delivers shifting shapes and patterns with his wonderful \"Metamorphosis\", all wah wah, harps, dramatic percussion and strings. It's by turns billowy and blasting. \"Cubist Pictures\" follows, Neil Richardson's brilliant nebulous, fragmentary piece. Better yet, Richardson's gorgeous, beatless \"Analysis\" follows, and it's an orchestral beauty featuring cello, harps and woodwind. It's no exaggeration to describe this as transcendental. His \"Crystal Ball\" presents more static scenes with cello, twinkling percussion and strings, before Steve Gray's fantastically-titled softly-ace \"Gliding Through Clouds\" closes out this remarkable set. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with all of our KPM re-issues, the audio for Image comes from the original analogue tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis.

FINALLY! Alan Tew's driving jazz-rock, sleuth-funk masterpiece, Drama Suite Part I is finally reissued to sate your appetites for arguably the very best library two-parter in existence. If you don’t know, get to know. Originally released in 1976 but wonderfully timeless, Drama Suite Part I is at the top of every library funk collectors' list. It's easy to see why...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRacing out the gate, the gritty crime funk of \"The Detectives\" makes for a thrilling, wild ride. A dramatic action theme, it's packed with strident playing and bags of attitude. There follows 10 (ten!) drama-tinged, horn-heavy, wah-wah-laced, conga-enhanced, synth-riddled links for neat segues and maximum funk fever. \"Helicop\" is another fast paced and energetic dramatic action background with great breaks and horns. \"The Big One (Prelude)\" has an ace bassline and creeps along superbly to create expectation and contains an amazing rolling piano loop that just stops you dead in your tracks. It's all building to \"The Big One\", a driving, dramatic, full-band action with fantastic funk breaks, heavy horns and *that* piano refrain. It was sampled by Jay-Z, and you can't really blame him, can you? The brief, tense \"Headlights\" and (even briefer) burner \"The Burn\" add some - you guessed it - deep drama over insistent rhythms to close out Side A. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlip over for \"The Detectives (Slow Version)\", a relaxed, thoughtful version featuring synths. You might recognise it as being sampled by Domo Genesis and Evidence for \"Tallulah\" from their brilliant collaboration a few years ago. \"The Detectives (Interlude)\" is another slow, pensive version featuring electric piano and a trombone solo in the centre section. There follows 6 further links, Detectives versions essentially, with guitars, electric pianos, flugelhorns - all very cool and relaxed rhythms. The strutting majesty of big-time highlight \"The Build Up\" is next. It's a medium-slow drama background with occasional light statements of The Detectives theme peppered throughout. Nice. The fantastically-titled \"Snout\" is a slow, tense background theme which features a repetitive guitar figure with alto flutes over the top. The tense, stabby funk of \"The Prowler\" rounds out proceedings, with nervous figures over a slow, insistent cymbal beat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with all of our KPM re-issues, the audio for Drama Suite Part I comes from the original analogue tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis.

FINALLY! Alan Tew's Drama Suite Part II. What can we really say? Honestly? We guess the first thing that strikes you is how clean the drums are. Almost impossibly slick but dripping so, so heavy with the neck-snapping funk you'd expect from perhaps the most sought-after library funk set of them all! The cheapest on Discogs is, currently, £1300+. Now's your chance to remedy that. If you know, you know. And we think you know...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The Rub\" is a cool, low-slung heavy-funk roller with relaxed brass and alto flute phrases. Up next, \"Money Runner\" is another edgy funk glider, its easy-tempo moving in harmony with slinky rhythmic riffs and featuring a seemingly ad-libbed electric piano solo. Strutting along after, \"White Elephant Walk\" is another laconic, deeply stoned walking theme with electric piano and alto flutes. There follows a couple of brief \"walking\" links before the brilliantly tense \"Master Plan\" slowly builds. Expectancy grows to the main theme around a minute in and then a melodic theme builds slightly to the 3 minute mark before floating down gradually and elegantly to its climax. It's utterly fantastic. The smoky, after-hours \"Night Watch\" is a slow, cool gem featuring alto flutes and synths. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow we're talking, \"The Fence (a)\" is just sensational and worth buying this album all on its own. It's likely the reason you're here, anyway. Another impossibly funky, slow and easy tempo with a bass riff to die for, dramatic guitar with gorgeous electric piano and alto flute phrases. It was sampled for \"Action Satisfaction\" by J5, way way back. \"The Fence (b)\" is a slower, more deliberate version of the previous heater, but it's no less essential. Indeed, it's absolutely jaw-drooping. Closing out this remarkable side, \"Surveillance\" is another horizontal masterpiece of relaxed yet dramatic jazz-funk. Vibes ad-lib in centre section and give you an idea of how Roy Ayers making library funk in the mid-late 70s might've sounded. Sensational. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlip over for \"Total Silence\", a near-beatless and understated scene-setter featuring neat interplay of guitar and synthesizer themes over bass and hi-hats. The slow \"Eyes\" follows, a brief gem with subdued electric piano solo and a light climax. The fantastic \"Drama Backcloth (1a)\" is up next, a repetitive piano and bass refrain with guitar figures over the top. Its creeping crime-funk vibe was pilfered for \"Outta Town Shit\" by Ghostface Killah in 2006. \"Drama Backcloth (1b)\" is a short, subdued version without the guitar figure. \"Drama Backcloth (2)\" features an expectant, background marimba figure over light rhythm whilst the cool \"Drama Backcloth (3)\" centres around a relaxed riff and the angular \"Drama Backcloth (4)\" presents eerie progressions with piano interjections. It's decidedly non-rhythmic! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe're then onto 14 (!) different half-minute \"Scenechanges\", all jazzy and funky, some cool and dramatic, some slow and rhythmic. All ace and groove-fuelled. The aptly-titled \"Final Statement\" closes proceedings, a slow, pensive theme on guitar joined by cool brass and a solo trumpet to its climax.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with all of our KPM re-issues, the audio for Drama Suite Part II comes from the original analogue tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis.

In 1989, after only a few performances, the duo released their first and only album: a cassette of eight songs titled ‘Un Exceso De Luz’ (‘An Excess of Light’), co-released by independent labels Perro Andaluz (Uruguay) and Circe (Argentina).\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDespite being limited to just 500 copies the album was critically acclaimed and lauded as the first ‘new age’ project to come out of Uruguay. Yet lumping ‘Un Exceso De Luz’ into that most vast and heterogenous confluence of musical genres, akin to ‘world music’, dismisses the alchemical breakdown of minimalism with gestures of contemporary jazz, exemplified by the shifting harmonic figures of ‘En Los Campos de Colonia’ (‘In the Fields of Colonia’).\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePereyra and Roland sound strings in tandem, forming harmonic compositions that generate unexpected resonances. Together they build a climatic character that gives the sound of Ensamble Acústico its most distinctive seal, sharing more with the aesthetics of contemporary jazz than the nebulous new age label. The opening track ‘Cuando la Nostalgia Guía’ (‘When Nostalgia Guides’) raises not a question so much as a provocation that hints at its own temporal limitations - as an unfinished sentence. ‘Reposo de la Hierba’ (‘Repose of the Grass’) meanders through grassy fields before ‘A Ras de Cielo’ (‘Flush With Sky’) reveals the ‘Exceso’ of the title track. These are the great ungroundings of modernity that saw the heavens open and dissolve the celestial sublime, leaving us with a godless excess of space and time.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePerhaps ‘new age’ is a more fortuitous classification than we originally suspected.

Covers include’Gorffennaf’ (‘Luglio’ in it’s original Italian) which was released with Rio 18 this Summer, and ‘Cân Am Gariad’ (Lesley Duncan’s ‘Love Song’) and ‘Hwiangerdd Takeda’ (‘Takeda no Moriuta’ in it’s original Japanese), both recorded with Bendith for their long-sold out 12” EP on Manchester’s legendary Aficionado label in 2017.
