Limited 7" Vinyl / Digital: TheAllergies.lnk.to/LeanOnYou

Despite the troubles globally faced in 2020, it’s safe to say that The Allergies bucked the trend and came back by ultimately having a rather glorious year. Releasing their fourth studio album, achieving the ‘A List’ on BBC Radio 6 Music and Radio Eins in Berlin, climbing high in the NACC US college charts, and generally receiving critical acclaim from a world that had an understandable appetite for some joyful and fun music in their lives.

2021 shows no signs of things slowing down. The heat continues for their 2020 album Say The Word with Pioneer, Liptons and IAMS all taking Allergies tracks for their global advertising campaigns. Rather than rest on their laurels, though, the guys went full lockdown creative and have their fifth album due for release in September, 2021.

“Jumping Off” was the first new track from the album to be debuted at the end of 2020 – A self-sampling version of their 2018 track “Main Event”. As with all Allergies tracks of late, the limited 7” release caused a Discogs feeding frenzy.

Now, The Allergies power forward with the first single of the 2021 album campaign – An absolute dancefloor destroyer featuring legend of the mic, Dynamite MC, entitled “Lean On You”.

The Allergies first hooked up with Dyna on previous album Say The Word for the fan favour-ite “Hot Sensation”. But, scheduling clashes with Dynamite’s own album release meant that a single outing for that track was not possible.

No such issues this time round means The Allergies kick off their 2021 album with a serious club and radio contender to move things to the next level.

It’s a stylistic new lane for the Bristol-based beatmakers. Their trademark heavy drum chops now flowing on half time tempos, with blues guitars riffs front and centre. The perfect back-ing, then, for the UK rap legend to find his theme and raise the roof.

The 7” is backed by “Working On Me” – A classic Allergies-style screamer with a taste of funky swamp rock, updated for your favourite dancefloor/kitchen/outside space, with five other people…

The duo of DJ Moneyshot and Rackabeat have been delighting dance-floors and lighting up the radio airwaves since forming The Allergies and releasing their debut album in 2016.

Year in, year out, they’ve sharpened their skills on the turntables and in the studio, dropping one dynamite record after another. Clocking up ‘Album of The Day’ gongs, national ad campaign spots, and Radio 6 Music A-list status, the pair show no sign of stopping the fun.

After consecutive top 40 albums, the boys just dropped number seven, FREAK THE SPEAKER. And it’s another stellar showcase for their feel-good funk, soul sampling savvy, and party-starting hip-hop. 

This year they’ll be taking to stages, tents, fields, and cities, supporting the album with their ‘full-band’ live show. But, if you want to catch them in their element, check Moneyshot and Rackabeat cutting up the wax, too, as they take their DJ show to clubs and festivals, far and wide. From Space in Ibiza, to Glastonbury festival, they’ve shook stages and rocked spots.

So, if you like crazy turntable skills, hands-in-the-air beats, all mixed up with some classy crowd rocking music, then an Allergies double-decking DJ set will be right up your street. 

“The Allergies music is big, bouncy and fat! Just how I like my funk” – Craig Charles, BBC Radio 6 Music
