Two yearâ??s since his successful debut album and 3 sold-out 12â??s on Brightonâ??s hugely successful Tru Thoughts label, Flevans returns with two unmistakeable cuts from his anticipated new album, â??Unfabulousâ??. These releases see Flevans coming out of the closet with Londonâ??s Jack To Phono label, after the 2 previous secretive Mooch 7"s that he also produced.
The two tracks here showcase Flevansâ?? much improved production and are a real flavour of things to come â?? â??Cold Handsâ?? starts out shuffling and moody before breaking into a dancefloor shaking, electro bass driven, party-starting monster! AA side, â??12 Apostlesâ?? is another Flevans classic in the making; funky breaks, horns and guitars combine to make this a proper funk workout.The flipside sees Australiaâ??s rising star, Rephrase and the co-founder of Brightonâ??s superb Cookshop label, Lost Idol providing 2 superb remixes. First up is Rephraseâ??s re-work of â??The Greeting Songâ?? â?? keeping the hip-hop feel of the original whilst adding his own distinct production values, Rephrase rolls up his sleeves and throws down another floor-mover. Lost Idol takes â??Cold Handsâ?? into uncharted territory, bringing the tempo down and turning the tune into something altogether more beautifulâ?¦
