Behind the Bass / Club : Release Notes

Were excited to announce that Kid Spatula returns after 20 years with a new full length LP. This comes after an incredibly creative streak from Mike Paradinas (aka µ-Ziq, Tusken Raiders, Jake Slazenger and Planet Mu label boss) that began in 2021 with arguably some of his best albums yet, such as Scurlage, Magic Pony Ride, 1977 and Grush. Opening and closing with the kind of spooky funk that only Mike P can produce, Joozy takes many twists and turns all within this artists unique sound world, embracing the more groovy laidback beats and sounds of his pre-Lunatic Harness era, with nods to his classic Kid Spatula and Jake Slazenger jams as well as hints of some of his more recent footwork and ambient adjacent work. There is a feeling throughout of innocent adventure. Without ever sounding truly retro the album somehow evokes for me a certain nostalgia for long lost summers and riding a BMX with a Walkman on. There are melodies that gently reveal themselves, as if floating out from perhaps a better time, part 70s jazz fusion, part 80s TV themes. Then there are the full blown ear-worms like the bubbling soda stream shuffle of Lichtblau or the somehow pastoral kosmiche of On The Green – the spirit of Raymond Scotts fun experimental electronic music every bit as present here as original 90s IDM bedroom producers. Elsewhere there are gothic organs and steam-powered mechanical beats that trace an aesthetic line all the way back to Tango N Vectif, whilst the carnival-esque Casablanca and footwork-paced Darth Vader boast warm haunting chordal shapes with aching melodies that pick up where recent µ-Ziq album Grush left off.
