Yppah - Eighty One - out on Ninja Tune

Yppah Eighty One
Yppah - Eighty One
(CD/LP/Digital) Ninja Tune ZENDNL179, 2012-04-02

Former Texan producer Joe Corrales Jr. aka Yppah, who's now based in California, does not produce the typical groovy or hip hop record you might expect to find on Paris DJs. He's more of an electronic/rock act, influenced by shoegaze, various electronic music, psychedelic soul, and rock music, as evidenced by heavy use of reverb, effects, and dreamy, introspective electronics. Rawfully emotional and visceral, this album will slowly grow on you, blending post-rock landscapes with mellow noise and spacey, ambient soulfulness.

Our monthly selection always has a bit of space to feature friendly labels such as (this time) BBE Music, Perfect Toy Records, Numero Group, Soundway Records and Ninja Tune, who all kept on sending us regularly their treats. Thank you all!

Record of the month has to go to Boddhi Satva and his addictive soulful house, and Reissue of the month in our book is the upcoming Funkees compilation on Soundway, Nigerian 70s afro-rock at its finest. And we hope you'll make some other damn fine discoveries along the way!

Spokes - We Can Make It Out - out on Counter Records

Spokes We Can Make It Out
Spokes - We Can Make It Out
(7"/Download) Counter Records COUNT034 /COUNTDNL034, 2010-11-15

Euphoric, heartfelt and utterly beautfiul, Spokes present We Can Make It Out, the first single from their forthcoming debut album, Everyone I Ever Met. Effortlessly blending together elements of shoegaze, folk and post-rock, its bittersweet joyfulness will purge your system of cynicism for a week. Its unique collective-choral vocals typify the energy of the forthcoming album as a whole. Ninja labelmate Yppah turns in a driving remix with a little more emphasis on the rhythm before Where Do I Sleep, an exlusive non-album track, takes the tempo down and shows just how intricately and beautifully the Spokes collective can make music. We Can Make It Out comes with a superb video by director Dan Lowe who himself has already achieved notoriety with a promo for Field Music which was nominated by RADAR for best budget video last year alongside luminaries such as Spike Jonze. This five piece based in Manchester are set to be one of the cult finds of the forthcoming year.
