Title: Late Night Tales presents ‘After Dark: Vespertine'
Label: Late Night Tales
Formats: 2LP 180g Pressed Vinyl 
Release: 4 Aug 2023
Genre: Electronica

This July, the esteemed scribe, proper DJ, and discreetly deft twiddler Bill Brewster, drops the latest installment in his ‘After Dark’ series, for Late Night Tales.  

A throbbing, louche and leisurely affair, groove is very much at the heart of this freestyle selection, a vibe which Bill describes as “a basement, a red light and a sound system. Or, as the Beastie’s once rapped, slow and low, that is the tempo”. 

There’s Hawaiian drum machine bossa balearica from Island Band, percussive afro post-punk from Czech jazz singer Jana Koubkova, and breathy-bubbling-dubwise-slap-bass-soul from Debbe & The Code.  

There’s also sultry deep house mood music from Lanowa, infectious bouncy jazz funk breaks from Canada High, and Nail’s life-affirming re-edit of singer-songwriter Gilbert O Sullivan’s electro-pop gem ‘So What’. 

Bill’s own studio skills are present and correct too, featuring an undulating bassy version of country troubadour Jeb Loy Nichols, reworked along Alex Tepper under their Hotel Motel moniker, and a chugged-up squelchy disco take on Khruangbin, this time paired with Raj Gupta, as Mang Dynasty. 

Chock full of exclusives, tracks are either completely brand new or available digitally for the first time, whilst others are wallet-rinsing rarities if purchased elsewhere. Whichever way you slice it though, every tune is a highlight, working equally well as standalone nuggets, or within Bill’s fluidly cohesive mix.

Ovidiu Zimcea – Street Fighter

Track description: “I wanted to make a narrative track inspired by a gig I had that was cut short due to the police coming to shut it down. The track initially started as part of a jam I recorded on a Korg Little Bits set. The oriental glitch part that comes in after half time got really stuck in my head for about a week after that so I decided to give it more context and make it the culminating point of a thick track that breaks up in three acts.”

About Ovidiu Zimcea
Started making music for film in 2007, at first for short film and later for features, live performances and contemporary dance. Gradually narrowed the stylistic approach for my live act to electronica with hints of post-rock trip-hop and R&B. Was formerly in Paperjam and Exit Oz, with which I’ve recorded the debut EP and LP, respectively, the latter being considered one of the important albums to come out of Romania in the 2010s as it was received especially well by critics and audiences alike. In 2016 and 2017 I was part of Alexandrina’s live band for her 10 year anniversary tour. Was invited to open for Nadja, Aidan Baker, Tibi Pin, Minus, Aleksa Alaska, BAB, The Best Bad Trip and The Egocentrics. A debut LP is currently in the works and will be released in early 2020.

LYRICS
Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac
Gangster whitewalls T.V antenna in the back
You may not have a car at all
But just remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful for what you've got
Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac
Diamonds in the back, sunroof top, diggin' the scene
With a gangster lean gangster whitewalls
T.V antenna in the back
You may not have a car at all
But just remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful for what you've got
Diamonds in the back, sunroof top, diggin' the scene
With a gangster lean ooh ooh ooh
Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac
Gangster whitewalls tv antenna in the back
You may not have a car at all
But just remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful for what you've got
Diamonds in the back, sunroof top, diggin' the scene
With a gangster lean
