Release Text:
Since he made his debut three years ago with sun-soaked first album Warm Nights, Reuben Vaun Smith has grown and evolved as an artist. His aims, objectives and musical output have changed, too – something that’s evident from the opening bars of his third full-length, Da Cuckoo Ya Ya, which also marks his first appearance on Californian institution Ubiquity Records.

Whereas the summery and colourful Warm Nights was the result of time spent teaching himself music and production, not to mention over a year of daily recording, Da Cuckoo Ya Ya was recorded in less than two months. It not only showcases Smith’s sharpened musicianship and his growing love of Eastern exoticism and wide-eyed psychedelia, but also features guest spots from friends (and fellow Leeds locals) Sakura Murakami (a guitarist who also featured on 2021’s Sounds From The Workshop album), bassist Nial Deravairere (on deliciously dubbed-out and hazy closing cut ‘Beams’) and vocalist Lucy Saddler.

While it shares some sonic similarities with its predecessors – not least a greater reliance on live instrumentation and plenty of audible nods towards Malian musical culture – Smith’s new set is his most confident and dynamic yet, with the Leeds-based producer consciously moving closer to the dancefloor whilst polishing his productions further and showcasing all he’s learned to date.

Smith sets the tone with funky and flash-fried opener ‘Da Cuckoo Ya Ya’, a superbly summer-ready statement of intent rich in flanged psych-funk guitar licks, vintage synth riffs and loose-limbed drums, before subtly doffing a cap to highlife on the peak-time-ready dancefloor celebration of ‘Mama’. By the time ‘Oumbadougou’ settles in to its stride in a wave of effects-laden guitars, polyrhythmic breakbeats, lilting violin lines and dusky early evening textures, you’ll be hooked.

The album is peppered with smile-inducing highlights, from the kaleidoscopic nu-disco/Afro-disco fusion of bona fide dancefloor jam ‘The Waxing Gibbous Moon’, the synth-sporting gorgeousness of ‘Mali’ and the explosion of keys solos, psych guitars and nods to Middle Eastern musical culture that is driving club cut ‘Milano Caravan’, to the hot-stepping, piano-sporting bounce of ‘No Puedo Esperar’ and the immersive, percussive and vividly colourful ‘Help Me Ride’. Then there’s triumphant closing cut ‘Beams’, a chugging, Afro-cosmic masterpiece of the sort more often associated with Daniele Baldelli and Marco Dionigi.

There’s no needlessly clever concept here, just ten killer cuts, expertly imagined and executed, that perfectly encapsulate the evolution and quality of Reuben Vaun Smith’s attractive trademark sound. It’s the sound of an artist who is not only comfortable in his sonic skin, but also laying the foundations of a long and fruitful musical career.

Dub/Reggae influenced Post-Punk, Industrial, Experimental, etc. from the late 70s and early/mid 80s. A huge influence of the era, especially in England (see Public Image Ltd., The Slits, The Pop Group etc.). There's also some representation here from Japan, Germany, Belgium, and Australia. Some of my all-time favorite tracks bear this influence, from Cabaret Voltaire's "Seconds Too Late" to Holger Czukay, Jah Wobble, Jaki Liebezeit's "How Much Are They?", amongst a handful of others here. 

I tried to maintain a nice upwards arc in the tempo/funkiness, but also made sure to have some interesting ups and downs, with an ear to similarities in sounds, for segues and sound compatibility. The beginning of the mix just happens to feature some of the earliest dated tracks I chose. The On-U Sound suite here wasn't intentional actually, but just happened to work out that way when sequencing the tracks. Funny how that happened, but makes complete sense. There are also some songs towards the end with only a vague dub influence (see Fad Gadget, TG), but are some of my favorites and worked nicely. The Upsetters track is more funk than dub so… That takes us to the end, with a suite of particularly unique, authentic dub/reggae/dancehall(!) tracks that showcase a nice range of styles.

Noteworthy… I finalized the track selection for the mix just a couple days before the death of Holger Czukay. The legend himself appears on a whopping four tracks here; the three bearing his name, and Moebius & Plank's "Missi Cacadou". So, in a way, this is also a farewell ode to the immensely inspiring Mr. Czukay. Surely his deeply psychedelic interpretation of the dub sound was influential in itself. Rest in peace.
