With tasteful scratches, doubled-up breakbeats, and slick transitions, Miles' mix offers a picture of some of his most crowd pleasing output covering Breakestra's original material, trademark covers, and even a few live rarities. Dusk Till Dawn comes out September 29th on Strut.

Breakestra - Dusk Till Dawn
(CD/2xLP/Digital) Strut/K7 Strut048CD/LP, 2008-09-28
For 2009, Breakestra return with their long-awaited sophomore set exploring all colours of the funk spectrum. Built around the vision of "Music Man" Miles and Mixmaster Wolf (as well as producing, recording and writing the tracks, Miles performs bass, drums, guitars, cello, keys, percussion and vocals on the record), the trademark Breakestra touches remain intact: Wolf fronts tough breakbeat jams Dark Clouds Rain Soul and Stones Throw single Low Down Stank; Miles himself brings his soulful vocals to Need A Little Love and I Don't Wanna Wait and amazing new female vocalist Afrodyete recalls the heyday of JB's Funky People on the terrific Come On Over. The album even journeys into psychedelic soul (on the fuzzy Show Me The Way) and stripped-back West African farfisa stylings on instrumental cut, North-East To Nippon. Dusk Till Dawn is a tribute to Tackett's late DJ partner at Rootdown, DJ Dusk, whose life was tragically taken in a road accident in 2007. Dusk himself appears alongside Jurassic 5's Chali 2na on the funky rap joint Posed To Be and the album is a fitting tribute to a much-loved L.A. figure and integral member of a scene which has become globally respected.
