This week I have mostly been listening to the new EP from Hot 8 Brass Band and the new album from Apparat. The reviews for these will be in March 2019's edition of Buzz Magazine, and I won't publish here before they go to print. Yet I will say that I liked one a lot, the other not at all. Like five stars liked and one star hated.
Anyway, in one of those lovely coincidences, the Hot 8 Brass Band EP is called Take Cover and features versions of Michael Jackson, George Benson, The Jacksons. As mentioned in a previous post, I'm on a covers hunt as part of the playlist challenge for the road trip to Wrexham next month for Wales vs Trinidad and Tobago.
While the previously mentioned artists may lend themselves naturally to Hot 8's hot takes, the first track on Take Cover probably took a bit work to make fit...
Who knew Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart could get so funky?
