J*DaVeY - "Might As Well"
07.03.2008
"Babe I've been working all day / I'm not looking for a serious thing"
The Song:
J*DaVeY deliver again with the track "Might As Well" from The Beauty In Distortion EP. Within the first few seconds we are put into a hypnotic trance by the electro-soul fusion produced by Brook D'Leau and Jack Davey's seductive voice. Unlike "Mr. Mister," which draws us in with a harsher sound, "Might As Well" has a celestial sparkle. Lines like "Babe I've been working all day/ I'm not looking for a serious thing" are the perfect soundtrack for a summertime fling.
The Beauty In Distortion / The Land of the Lost Double EP is climbing the charts and currently in the Top 5 Electronic Albums on iTunes!
The Background:
With production ranging from the spastic, space-age drums of "Mr. Mister" to the celestial keys of "Might As Well," The Beauty In Distortion plays with the variance and depth of a polished, full album. On The Land of the Lost, producer-extraordinaire ?uestlove and Renaissance emcee Phonte of Little Brother contribute in an equally holistic compilation of futuristic records. Throughout the 23 tracks, two constants bind the project together in a mystical fashion: the steamy vocal musings of Jack Davey and the bleeps, drums, and melodies of Brook D'Leau.
Heralded as a cross between Prince and the B-52s, J*DaVeY is in fact influenced by too many genres to count. A fusion of funk, surf, soul, hip-hop, and electronic secret sauce, the J*DaVeY EPs will satiate starving fans from all ends of the musical spectrum. Already featured everywhere from Fader to Allure to CSI: New York, Jack and Brook are prepared to smoothly swagger into the limelight with their first major release. All ears not finely tuned to the freshly paved street will ring come July.
