Clap! Clap! Returns to Black Acre to Deliver His Debut LP, Stream a Track Now

Posted in News with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on June 26, 2014 by J.D.

Clap! Clap!After storming the gates with his warmly received Tambacounda EP, Clap! Clap! returns to Black Acre to deliver is debut long player.

Tayi Bebba is a highly conceptual work that manages to balance a highly cerebral concept with making some good old fashioned bangers. Tayi Bebba is an album tour of an imagined island each song representing a location, event or ritual. Sonically it’s a fast moving charge across the soundscape fusing field recordings and found sound with incredibly surgical drum programming. Flavours of house, Footwork and Hip Hop punctuate your migration with a very specific sound palate giving this amazing work a cohesive feel.

Rustie Announces New Album ‘Green Language’ (Out Aug 26), US Tour Dates+Raptor(Stream )

Posted in News with tags , , on June 26, 2014 by J.D.

Rustie Announces New Album 'Green Language' (Out Aug 26), US Tour DatesRustie returns this summer with second album Green Language, a follow-up to his 2011 highly lauded debut album Glass Swords.

This record is more personal and mature in nature, marked by Rustie’s transition from London back to his hometown of Glasgow, and choosing to only work with those that he has a personal and musical connection to including friend Danny Brown, Numbers cohort Redinho, and UK grime MC legend D Double E. Green Language reflects his early love of shoegaze, grime, trance and Dirty South hip-hop, and despite these wide-ranging reference points, Rustie is of one mind when it comes to explaining what he’s trying to express with his beats. He wants to reflect the euphoria he felt during raves he attended as a teen, and the joy he gets from making music. And he’d like his music to be personal to others that listen to it, too. It is his ability to exude emotional depth from in-your-face beats that is the core of his music, and belies his quiet, shy nature in person. “A big part of music for me is to say things that you can’t say with words,” he admits.

Green Language Tracklist:
01. Workship
02. A Glimpse
03. Raptor
04. Paradise Stone
05. Up Down ft. D Double E
06. Attak ft. Danny Brown
07. Tempest
08. He Hate Me ft. Gorgeous Children
09. Velcro
10. Lost ft. Redinho
11. Dream On
12. Lets Spiral
13. Green Language
