Next up on Eglo Records after the hugely successful Vacuum EP by Floating Points Its the debut release of West Londons Stevie J aka FunkinEven 1956, featuring Hackneys new Queen of Funk & Soul, Fatima on vocal duties. 1Xtras Benji B has already been going mad over it, and the track is slowly building a reputation at a number Londons underground jams and warehouse parties. Sonically it occupies a similar stratosphere to Dam Funk, Sa Ra, Bugz In The Atitic, Dorian Concept, Joker etc, but with a West London twist and deeply crafted vocal melody.
