Yesking X Honey Honey – Little Toy Gun

Yesking

Been running this number since Mark Rae blessed me with it sometime last year. Constant play at the sets and featured it on a mix I did for KCRW in Los Angeles. Now the good people at Yesking (big up the General, Rhys Adams) have made this tasty exclusive available for free. Grab it before the SoundCloud download limit expires here. Boom!

The Dynamics Sound

The Dynamics

There’s a group from Lyon, France that’s making big noise and has been for some time now.

I first got hip to the Dynamics via their cover of  Cymande’sBrother’s on the Slide“. I hold the original close to my heart, so for them to tip the hat towards it and make it their own via the lush roots number they cooked up, was something special.

That was back in 2007 and I haven’t stopped bumping their debut LP, “Version Excursions” since.

A true testament of good music is when it can stand the test of time and the Dynamics music has yet to leave my sets and probably won’t be leaving any time soon. Their rootsy remakes of Soul, Jazz and Rock covers are incredibly tasteful and flavored just right! Head’s turn whenever I drop their cover of Curtis Mayfield’sMove on Up“, while necks break in the spot when their version of The White Stripe’sSeven Nation Army” rattles speakers.

Check them out today, your ears will thank you.
