Official Release Date - 2nd May 2014

Just like bacon, the latest release by French producer IFF (“I’m from Finland”), is a delectable and fascinating phenomenon – an entity which will also predictably make its way around the internet soon. 
Lest you think of “The Bacon Escape” as yet another banal troll (though it is definitely inspired by), there is a interesting and well-thought reasoning for the titled album, one that is symbiotic to his reason for music (each track has ‘bacon’ in its title). 
In essence, music is to be as accessible, and enjoyed, as bacon.
“Music is universal, Bacon sure seems to be as well, so that’s what went on in my head when I wrote this piece.”
Now its gotten into ours – this 4 track EP with two additional remixes by rising producers Kayloo and Suede has a finesse, which grows on you. It has all the ingredients for easy listening – synth lines, bass swells and tight syncopation. 
As he puts it himself - " I make music for the soul, but if you don’t feel like you have one, it’s okay… You got ears". Now dig in some hearty soul grub, “The Bacon Escape”.

We are proud to be premiering this on the excellent HillyDilly platform, which has always showed a lot of love and support for what we do. Big shouts!

Lyrics:

Uhh rest in peace to a legend
This is Prince hop
This is happier than Ross at a wing stop
This the shit that tell your boss that you quit your job
I ain't tryna hang with ya
You ain't a friend you a lynch mob
As a kid I got picked on
Then I had the big hair
Always had it picked out
Shit, it was lit, you could pick me out a big crowd
2002 summer
Cucumber sandwich
Pajamas hand stitched
My grandma teaching manners to her grandkids
Put a bandage on my knee
She told me I could fly and I managed to believe
Tv shows when I was younger
Rug rats. Power Rangers
Loony tunes hour later
Kowabunga
Mutant turtles
At the pool I took my shirt off
Canon ball. Foam tubes
I would squirt ya with the noodle
Come on

Hook:
And I know you remember
When we were young
And the games we played
Were all that mattered
All that mattered
And you know I remember
Before we grew up
Take it day by day
Won't you take me back there
Take me back there



Monkey bars on the playground
Bed time round nine getting late now
Now it's 9 to 5 and you know it sucks
Like, like damn it I'm a grown up
Back only thing we drank lemonade at a ball game
How I wish I could pause it
Traded my small days
For hard work and heart break
And hard earned
Everything come the hard way
Kept Pokémon cards like a secret
Now everybody running through the 6
At age six I was running through the sprinkler
With my bro
Boom box
Biggie coming through the speakers
In the back with a seat belt
Back when mom was the Uber driver
Who knew growing up woulda screwed my life up
I miss screwing around before we knew what a night club was

After a long hiatus, Bay Area producer and label stalwart Go Yama returns with a triumphant full-length release. Following a period of internal struggle with the realities of creating art in the digital age, the genre-bending producer has turned inward, tearing down and rebuilding his creative approach. This re-imagining of the Go Yama sound has brought one of his deepest creative driving forces to the forefront of his music: the need to cultivate a sense of exploration and curiosity about life.

Naturally, ‘The Exploration’ LP is the culmination of this realisation paired with a surge of unbridled creativity. Through tireless and unfettered experimentation, the producer allowed themes, narratives, and connections in the music to make themselves apparent through the process of creation, rather than dictating them from the start; the album is essentially a snapshot of Go Yama crystallising his own musical ‘truth’. Additionally, his interest in anime / manga culture is apparent in the sculpting of samples and soundscapes throughout the album. Fuelled by bouncy basslines, sweeping guitar riffs, a collage of found sounds, and a pervasive soulful streak, the sonic world of Go Yama is perched in the middle of a web of genres and styles, taking inspiration from all but never being tied down to any. With guest appearances by current movers like Mike Gao, Flamingosis, Elaquent and Ruff Draft, ‘The Exploration’ takes us on a journey deeper into this world than ever before, and it is a truly awe-inspiring ride.
