nashville s dusty funkateers magic in threes return to rnt reserve with a triptych of low-strung grooves, each complimented by a superlative remix. chupa cabra, a sweet soulful joint, is reimagined as a devilishly pulsating and funky burner by rnt mainstays fouk on their remix. parisian patchworks takes the 70s-cop-show funk of work tapes straight to nigeria with a beautifully crafted highlife remix. finally there s come on down, reminiscent of classic donald byrd in the larry mizell days, which is beefed up and readied for the dance floor by analog wizard lay-far. a lovely package for listening, or bumping!
pressed on limited 12 inch blue vinyl and housed in the new reserve generic sleeve
