SIDE A - STALLY & THE BREADWINNERS – ‘RIDDIM BOX DUB’
Strictly analogue sounds from Stockport’s Bakery Studio harking
back to the 70’s heyday of Jamaican dub experiments. All recorded on ¼” reel
tape utilizing various vintage effects typical of the era. The Breadwinners are
the Bakery Studio house band; which may include as many as four or five
musicians but is often just Al, stockpiling rhythm tracks for any visiting
singers and players.
‘Riddim Box Dub’ is produced, mixed and written by Al
Breadwinner. All instruments are played, and music written by Al, excluding the
tenor sax that is played by Stally who adds his usual deep felt improvisational
touch to the track.
The Breadwinners album ‘Dubs Unlimited’ released at the end
of 2012 is also available on King Spinna Records on LP,
CD and Digital Download.
SIDE A – SKINSHAPE –
‘SOUL GROOVE’
Skinshape (a.k.a Will Dorey) co-founder of Horus Records is
a 'bedroom studio' enthusiast, recording all manner of instruments and using
tape machines, spring reverbs, and whatever else he can get his hands on to
create tracks on Ableton. The outcome often lies somewhere in between
reggae/dub and hip-hop beats. ‘Soul Groove’ meanders along a loosely
reggae-orientated beat and features two guest performers. Firstly, singer and
lyricist Anina crafts a melodious vocal line through the song with her
beautifully dreamy voice. Secondly, on the organ we have Mr Jon Moody with some
mellow chops and a bone-shattering solo taking us to the next level!! More on
Skinshape is most readily available through his soundcloud page or his
Facebook page.
