Catching Groovy Feelings

Montreal beat king Shash'U kicked off 2015 with his debut Fool's Gold EP Thru Da Night, launching his inventive, muscular take on dance music worldwide, and racking up props from underground peers like Kaytranada, gatekeepers at MTV and BBC Radio, and sweaty fans around the globe in the process. 

Most producers would be content to repeat a successful formula on their follow-up release, but on the new PWRFNK EP, Shash'U blows up his own playbook entirely, blazing forward with a wildly self-assured sound that slaps futuristic, heavy bass over '80s-inspired electro grooves worthy of Axel F. Grab a taste for yourself with the heavy breathing bump of "PXXXY," and stay tuned for the full nine-track PWRFNK EP out 3/31 on Fool's Gold (along with a limited edition, deluxe vinyl edition collecting Thru Da Night and PWRFNK on two 12"s along with a fold-out poster of the wraparound sleeve art by acclaimed illustrator Ron Wimberly).

Montreal's Shash'U has quickly become a force on the beat scene with an inventive, muscular new take on dance music. After making waves with his debut Fool's Gold EP Thru Da Night earlier this year (an immediate DJ favorite and BBC Radio pick) he delivers an amped up sequel today in the form of PWRFNK, slapping futuristic, heavy bass over '80s-inspired midnight electro.

Shash'U - Sexy Jacket

Shash'U - Workout Pt. 1 feat. FRSHMKRS

Shash'U - Don't Fight It (Again)

Shash'U - Nitro (Intro)

This was the last track played at Vintage and Classic Reggae Night in Huddersfield on the 9th/10th May.  Words by Sangie Davis.   

The evening is a meditation in itself, put on by a dedicated DJ through the gorgeous Valvatron Sound System.  Every month it heals my wounds and moves me forward.  I owe a great deal to the night and the nobel Dr Huxtable.

This recording is a glimmer of my respect for well chosen, finely crafted reggae played through a proper system.     

(also - i have used an image of the Valvatron but that does not indicate any endorsement - I just think it's hypnotically good looking.)

IM INTO YOU
I gotta feeling we are gonna win
our bodies make it perfect 
and your eyes can make me swim

then again everything seems knew
I can barely hold my tongue
to say the least I'm into you

and your eyes
are saying more than we can talk and warmer than the bedroom sport
and your thighs are kisses from the outside, girl thats all i need

i'll take it down the other road
to breathe in something more

I find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for


*
I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododo   

the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododo


when i press an ear up to your breast
I can hear the rhythm start
its hard to tell our beats apart

so I hope your listening right now
cause I can barely hold my tongue
the shit we do could warm the sun

at night
twisted in a melting fall and sleeping with the scratching claws
your words
let me know your feeling me and seeing all the things I see

i'll take it down the other road
to breathe in something more

I find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for

I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododo   

the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododo
