J*DaVeY - "Slooow"
07.16.2008
"Turn the lights down, come take it slow"
The Song:
"Slooow" is J*DaVeY's sultry, summery siren song in which Jack Davey beckons you to "turn the lights down / come take it slow". The layering of her raspy coo weaving inbetween the funky bass line and asian-inspired synths, along with the steady beat lure you into four minutes of irresistible head-bobbing. It's impossible to ignore the thumping beat, and you can't help but fall captive to that sexy singsong melody.
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.
