It's been a long time coming... Hot off the heels of his featured appearance on 'Deadman' from Nitin Sawhney's 'Philtre' album, Fink's debut record is now in the can. "Pretty Little Thing / Biscuits" are the first offerings from the new LP, available on limited 7" and for download. Both tracks were recorded in Fink's 7Dials attic studio - bursting with records, guitars, computers, mics, and on occasion, his band...
"Pretty Little Thing" was the first track Fink recorded for the project and is pretty much a solo affair - he started it on a Friday night and by Monday morning the direction of his music had changed forever. Pretty Little Thing was the start of it all, a song about a guy, a girl, and a party...
"Biscuits" - recorded with his band (comprising of ex-Prankster rhythm section Guy Whittaker on bass and Tim Thornton on drums) is the true story of Fink's realisation that a day job is a trap. The title is a reference to his first job in the big smoke as the tea and biscuit boy for a large corporation. A hybrid of blues, soul, beats and dub this is a real taster for the album to follow....
Fink's debut Ninja Tune LP "Biscuits for Breakfast" will be released in April 2006... Keep an eye out for Fink and his band on the road.
