Press Release :
Picture this: in a story of foul play with a strong hint of irony and exaggeration, the flick deals with Henry -our leading character- who is caught in the middle of several seedy transactions… This is the soundtrack to "Duck Soup".

The Ottawa Bros shared a similar interest in music and film. There is a common, easy to define thread here: ranging from a retro mood emanating from the vault -that '60s and '70s sound-, to more neo funk beats and attitude-filled riff-o-rama, that stay clear from the pop song formula and other fixations. What is stitched-up here, is a crusty blend of percussive breaks, afrobeat grooves, cinematic scapes and even the occasional psychedelisized swing to pseudo funky/rocky/jazzy flavors.

Dj Oxocube, the extractor, ties it all together for the soundtrack. A hideous amount of editing, processing, programming (and de-programming) was involved in the process. No cheese here... just "Duck Soup".

Speech Debelle - Freedom Of Speech
(CD/LP/Digital) Big Dada Recordings BD193, 2012-02-06

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love. A first taste of the album came in the aftermath of this summer's riots, when Speech reacted immediately, leaking the track Blaze Up A Fire, (also featuring Roots ManuvaRealism), a track about political revolution written months before. Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
