Renegades Of Jazz’s newest single “Just Stirred” is a collaboration with Diesler & Laura Vane and anticipates upcoming albumSonic Verve scheduled for release in the Fall. Jonathan Radford (Diesler) and David Hanke (Renegades Of Jazz) first met in 2013 when they shared the decks of the renowned Mojo Club in Hamburg/Germany. Not much later they teamed up for their first song together; “Rokko Loko” which was released on 12".
Fast-forward almost 10 years and they have teamed up once again, joined by Laura Vane on vocals and Dave Lilley on cosongwriting, for their single “Just Stirred”, which will be part of Renegades Of Jazz's upcoming album Sonic Verve.

Just Stirred feat. Laura Vane & Diesler

mhh, no just-
bring the beat out
okay? eyyy
3, 2, 1 mhhh

Today i really had a really shitty day 
Don’t even wanna look your goddamn way

Taking up all my energy and they think
Im just gonna sit here all day and think
“Bless them for having something to say to me
because honestly i really don’t know if i could be 
so interresting and pretty as them”
Well fuck them

Jokes that aren’t even funny (bring)
I don’t even know why im here honselty (why am i here?)
It reeks of priviledge and some fucking money (ew)
Goddamn they are all so petty (look at them)

But yes go on, stay living in your bubble
Just save me the trouble that room is so abubble

The world doesn’t revolve around you
And i’m sorry to bring 
Something different to the table 
But i honeslty think

You all look stupid waring the same thing
You think expensive shoes will make you the shit  

Well im sorry for breaking the news to you but 
You’ll always stay a fucking loser and
No matter the price that you pay for thoses shoes
You’ll always recieve boos  (looser)

The world doesn’t revolve around you
And i’m sorry to bring 
Something different to the table 
But i honeslty think

That you’ll end up dying alone with your money
Happy for you, maybe you sould probably think
About having some friends and family and maybe
The closest think to you souldn’t be a birkin 

Taking up all my energy and they think
Im just gonna sit here all day and think
“Bless them for having something to say to me
because honestly i really dont know if i could be 
so interresting and pretty as them”
Well fuck them

Jokes that aren’t even funny (bring)
I don’t even know why im here honselty (why am i here?)
It reeks of priviledge and some fucking money (ew)
Goddamn they are all so petty (look at them)

Pop your bubble, tonight I pop your bubble (x4)

What a fucking bitch ughhh

POP UR BUBBLE

Africa 45, number 12 – http://www.mrbongo.com/products/wganda-kenya-shaloade-peter-king-ajo-7

A. Wganda Kenya - Shaloade

Uptempo afro-latin business of the highest order. You might recognise Wganda Kenya from our Latin 45’s series; they are infact a Latin band produced by the legendary Fruko. This is a cover version of Fela Kuti’s ‘Shakara Oloje’ originally released on Discos Fuentes in 1976, hence their inclusion here in Africa 45’s.

Peter King - Ajo

We have released two albums by Peter King on Mr Bongo, ‘Miliki Sound’ and ‘Shango’. ‘Ajo’ is a Mr Bongo favourite. Reminiscent of Begining Of The End’s ‘Funky Nassau’, it’s sweet, vocal driven afro-funk with killer uplifting horn
sections, changes and drum breaks.

Originally appeared on King’s ‘Omo Lewa’ LP from 1976, originals of which are nigh on impossible to find for a reasonable price now.

With past Diesler releases having enjoyed support including Zane Lowe, Gilles Peterson, Bonobo, Mr. Scruff & Craig Charles and across the BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2 & BBC 6 Music networks, the fourth single from Diesler in 2016 will please fans across the globe as it sees him reunited with long time vocal collaborator Double Yellow. 

Having enjoyed an incredible 4 years since releasing his debut album ‘Life In The Slow Lane’ , Double Yellow has been courted by remixers galore, the likes of Yam Who? and Simbad, and enjoyed compilation success from Germany to Japan. 

The pair team up on the smoldering ‘Repeat This Moment’, a haunting slice of deep dance floor action cut with a slice of latin soul. We can tell you this track has been going down a storm in peak time sets when Diesler has road tested it. 

On the flip side Diesler delivers another trademark dance floor shaking, latin breaks bomb in the shape of Cavador. Having been dropping it in his DJ sets all over summer this one is sure to keep the tents bouncing at festivals all season long. 

Diesler’s new single ‘Repeat This Moment ft. Double Yellow / Cavador’ is released on A Little Something Recordings on 2nd September 2016 via Digital Download / Streaming.
