nach zwei solo-alben auf false idols kommt tricky nun mit einer vinylsingle-kollaboration um die ecke, die bei !k7 erscheint. diese firmiert unter der dachmarke skilled mechanics und ist als loses kollektiv mit wechselnder belegschaft zu verstehen. vorteil tricky: der tausendsassa kann sein einzigartiges gesangstalent mit verschiedenen künstlern zur geltung bringen. mit am start auf der zwei tracks (beijing to berlin / necessary) umfassenden 7 inch sind dj milo, ein alter freund von tricky und musikalischer weggefährte aus the wild bunch-zeiten, sowie die chinesische rapperin und produzentin ivy ? ?, die tricky zufällig in peking kennenlernte, und deren rätselhafter habitus ihn magisch anzog.
tricky is back. back with a new studio album, false idols, and his own label (also bearing the false idols name), but also back in a personal sense. i was lost for ages,he says. i was trying to prove something to people, trying to do something to please other people and also myself at the same time, which is never going to work. to be honest with you, ive been floating around since chris blackwell and island. my last two albums, i thought they were good, but i realise now they werent. this album is about me finding myself again.
tricky returns with his 13th album, ununiform, out in september on his own label false idols via !k7 music. it‹s a delicate, storming, intricate album that sees tricky take perhaps his most radical step yet a journey into happiness and contentment. it‹s a record that shows the legendary british producer confront his legacy, history, family _ even death itself. and in all of this, he finds the strangest, least familiar thing _ peace.
