Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance (Groove Motion's 2013 Dub Rub)

We're just shy of two months away from having a brand new Neneh Cherry solo studio album. First in 16 years! Hot damn! Since NYE is a comin' before then; how 'bout celebrating early with this smokin' Buffalo Stance dub rub? Thought so! The 1988 original we'll never stop loving and you always find new sounds when listening it seems. No wonder it hit #3 in both the UK and US + #1 in Sweden of course! This rub builds on the original dub and adds some sweet contemporary bass to the classic stems. Grab the DL below and bust those moves. We know we will! 

Premiere: Neneh Cherry - Blank Project

On February 25th '14 Neneh Cherry will release Blank Project, her first solo record in 16 years. Produced by post-punker Kieran Hebden a.k.a Four Tet the whole album (10 tracks) was recorded and mixed down in just 5 days. Also worth mentioning is that a certain Robyn Carlsson will be featured on a track called Out of The Black! The first taster is the title track, an eclectic and organic sounding song miles away from the sleek Buffalo Stance. Neneh's voice is raw over a sparse and dark beat. Those drums and bass hides a lot of pain and sadness while at the same time invite your body to find its primordial rhythm and just let it all out. The album is written to work through a personal tragedy and the evidence shows in this track. Sounding like a beat poet we're getting snippets from a family situation. It's raw, honest and a lot to take in. Press play gently below and prepare for quite a trip! Thoughts?

Video Premiere: House of Wallenberg Feat. Neneh Cherry & Ari Up - Real Woman

Hello summer anthem! We're proud to present the first look of House of Wallenberg's new video Real Woman! The fact that Neneh Cherry is featured on a dance oriented track once again is a dream come true! Over a hard dancehall flavoured beat Ari Up of The Slits fiery rap opens with Neneh's sickenin' talent kicking in at the soaring chorus. The early 90's tinged video features Petter himself and his badass crew kicking up a storm. We're definitely up for clubbing with these and have a vogue-off! Bring it on! Since Ari, who sadly died in October '10, and Neneh were best friends and worked together in the early 80's how awesome to have this as the biggest tribute possible. Also, House of Wallenberg's debut album Legends is getting rave reviews! Truly deserved! Enjoy the video belooow and show some luvin' on Spotify and iTunes. 

The Remixes: House of Wallenberg Feat. Octavia St. Laurent - Be Somebody

The House of Wallenberg keeps on releasing excellent music! As we've been on a real house high these last few weeks it's awesome to add the Be Somebody remix EP to the playlist! Since the original and Part 2 sport heavy early 90's vibes and feature Paris Is Burning legend Octavia St. Laurent with the latter also incorporates a verse by equal badass Neneh Cherry - this release ties it all together so well. Heartbreakingly enough the entire project is released after Octavia passed away, and is also her only full music project to see the light of day - if there's such a thing as an afterlife we can only hope she's in a club where they have access to new releases! CVNT TR4XXX goes the chopped and layered route with the vocals while adding a sick bass and dirty synths. Love that! Perfect for a Vogue-off! Stockholm based duo Kings of the Universe throws glitter in the air and create a sweet nod to classic Chicago house. It sounds like a sickenin' 12" you'd find in hidden crate in a vintage shop even! Nice! Listen below and grab P.2 in the process! Enjoy! The full EP on iTunes here!
