Late Night Tales celebrate their 20th anniversary with the release of multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and producer Jordan Rakei’s majestic compilation. The 28-year-old modern soul icon effortlessly stamps his own jazz and hip-hop driven sound all over this gorgeous array of handpicked tracks. A beautifully layered blend that is mirrored in the music he’s made, it comes as no surprise that such a supremely gifted songwriter should deliver a mix that is all about the song.

Rakei, born in New Zealand, but raised in Australia, moved to the UK in 2015; he released his debut album, Cloak, with Oz label Soul Has No Tempo, but his two subsequent LPs, Wallflower and Origin, came out on Ninja Tune, the former #2 in Album Of The Year for Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide poll, while Origin was nominated for Best Album at the AIM Awards. Jordan had this to say on his upcoming mix:

“I wanted to try and showcase as many people as I knew on this mix. My idea of Late Night Tales was to distil a series of relaxing moments; the whole conceptual sonic of relaxation. So, I was trying to think of all the collaborators and friends that I knew, who’d recorded stuff with this horizontal vibe. Plus, I was also trying to help my friends' stuff get into the world. I know the story of Khruangbin blowing up after appearing on the series (in fact, I think that's how I discovered them). So, the main idea was to create a certain atmosphere, but also to help some of my favourite collaborators and buddies to give their songs a little push out into the world. Hope you like it” Jordan Rakei

LYRICS

RUBBER KID

They made a flag of every inch of your love 
You are a rainbow
You unhappy unicorn
You’ve been bought and sold
A thousand times
You, rubber kid
You’ve been bought and sold 
You, rubber kid

Water will rise
Keep dancing in you room The drones’ refrain
We’ll be sitting judging you 
Like it’s not our fault
The end of the world
You, rubber kid
It’s the end of your world 
My rubber kid

Songs for the Mean and the Vile

A portfolio of imagined soundtracks I have been writing lately

The Weirdest Uplift

Ant is two song bundle: Can I do that and Who are you
These songs are born as sketches to get our songwriting in a new direction. But after experimenting with synths, drum machines, guitar effects, vocoder, I found very entertaining to start to make instrumental tracks with entwining melodies and vocals twists.
So here our first take of something that I would define as Lounge music. I had no mental limitation in composing this music I hope the listener will approach it with the same openness.
Like a newborn exploring a wide new world.


Bio: Thinman&Sparrow: is a Duo based in Amsterdam, formed by Gian Jesus (Guitar/Synths/Harp/Computer) and Frank Valchiria (Singer/Writer). Our music is strongly bound to the American tradition and to the classic European chanson.
We like the idea to bring echoes from the past directly into the modern world. We like to use a modern approach to sound to shape our music and fit the world we live in.
