the first music to be lifted from her forthcoming sophomore album, zara mcfarlane drops *angie la la* on 2nd december 2013. in many ways an underground cult classic, zaras reworking of this jamaican psych gem by nora dean features former brownswood bubblers alumnus and new yorker leron thomas on trumpet and vocals. consistently one of our favourite producers from the house realm, the truly legendary osunlade aka yoruba soul applies his golden touch to *angie la la*, crafting an exquisitely sensitive and soulful groove founded on booming kicks and handclaps.
