"Unwind is a corker!!"
Press Release :
IF YOU HAVE A LOT ON YOUR MIND, YOU JUST NEED TO... UNWIND!
The TrackAddicts were put together in Haarlem, Holland by Ten, ex Gotcha! and Nicotine frontman, known for his multiple appearances with the P-funk All Stars and Zwazi, from the Dutch Reggae band Postmen.
They are the audio equivalent of Dutch weed: full-fat, bad hip-hop funk for anyone that's had enough of lukewarm tea from overseas...
Just dope.
Lose yourself in the deep bass hits, soulful high-tone vocals and chilled out rapping. Roll this funk in a paper and let the music make you high.
Good tracks are constantly lurking in hidden corners of the collective mind. They cannot be invented or created. They can only be discovered, drawn out of obscurity, and put to use by free thinking spirits. Ten doesn't search for lyrics, they come to him. He makes them palatable, opens his mouth and spits them out. They fall on a grid supplied by Zwazi like Tetris blocks. To them, there is no formula for creating good tracks, "it's sculpture, we just take a big chunck of sound and cut off every bit that doesn't sound like a good track".
You've got to see them live, that's where the party really starts.
"Unwind" soon to be released on Kraked 2006.
