------------------
Frenetic and funky with a nod to the vibe and energy of the JB funky 9th. This is one for the b-boys and b-girls WORLDWIDE - welcome to the Get Down from Down Under.
Hey you, yes you! Step back in line - didn’t you hear? Kaiit is “…not accepting applications at this point in time…” Queen Kaiit is running things on this punchy, hard-hitting vocal banger.
Like a crusty and blistered 8mm horror flick, Howler is lurking in the periphery of your sonic vision. Dirty, fuzzy tremolo guitar draws you in with echoes of Adrian Younge - fear the cinematic darkness!
Chicago-born and Melbourne-based King of Suits, Fallon Williams lends his gritty vocals to this track. Fallon’s on the warpath, speaking truths and giving notice to all you trap talking politicians.
Kylie Auldist shines bright on this melodic soul chugger. Kylie’s not one of the millions she’s One Of The Ones stepping out and claiming what’s hers. The perfect blend of sweetness and heat.
CO3B lay down some uptempo boogaloo breaks reminiscent of the summers we grew up with. Freezing public pools, deadly diving boards and scorching concrete - nothing left to do but jump on in!
The dark and bluesy Sunday Mumma builds with dynamic intensity and then drops away like tones echoing out in the night. Join the CO3B lads on a journey into soulful melancholy.
A shout out from the Cookin’ On 3 Burners family to everyone going through the struggle of global displacement. Featuring the heartfelt vocals of Melbourne’s own Simon Burke - frontman of The Meltdown.
Lab Experiments Vol. 2 is out tomorrow via Soul Messin' Records.
