The long-awaited debut album You from Dublin five-piece Meltybrains? was released on January 25 via Strange Brew records. Brian Dillon talks about what took them so long, their various acquaintances and sideprojects along the way - Micheál Quinn drums for Dermot Kennedy for example, Sim Simma is always one of the best parts of festival season, while Brian and Ben Bix also helped make the music, with Eoin 'Talos' French, for Emmet Kirwan's latest show Accents.

It has been years in the making - an exploration of the journey of five young men, trying to get from one end of their 20s to the other. Much like the making of the album, this journey was trickier than any of them thought it would be. It’s an absolute beginner’s guide to the microcosm, the macrocosm and everything in between. It’s also a bit of fun and a pretty good record, combining influences from footwork, drone and j-pop with krautrock, psychedelia and prog.

A few words from Ital on this incredible mix showcasing the best of Lovers Rock:

This mix is exclusively made up of artists on Lovers Rock, in various permutations & aliases. The DJ Python (aka DJ Wey) track will come out on Prohibito; many of these tracks also aren't made for release. A few of them of course have already been released: DJ Wey "Tare Gent Us," Earthen Sea "Beat 13" and Ital & Halal "The Thirst." The "Radio Interference" is a recording of some very unsettling, drifting noise that sometimes comes through the radio unprompted at LR HQ. As for the rest of them, we'll have to wait and see.
