Tresor Records is proud to announce a new commission, bringing together two of its most time-honored contributors.

Berlin’s Thomas Fehlmann and Detroit’s Terrence Dixon came together in Detroit to produce this expressive album. An avant-premiere live performance of this album was presented at Tresor’s annual Detroit showcase in May 2017. 

Composed of six titles and exploring a wide range of rhythms and emotions, “We Take It From Here” is a celebration of resilience, patience, creativity and devotion. 

Tresor.302 releases April 20th, on 2LP and digital.

Lyrics:
"Darling can’t you see, that there’s no one here for me.
There’s something in command I feel the rhythm as we danced.
Tell me is this love the same that turns the sun and earth.
I told you I won’t leave but this rhythm’s taken me.

Are you seeing me dear, are you seeing me inside out.
Trembling by myself.
Eventually I become like an origami swan.
You twist me out of shape; you shape me how you want. 
Oh you couldn’t relate? to the movements in this space?
You’re forgiven and it’s ok, these vibes are just for me!"

Tony Njoku - Slow Dance Radio - 13.03.19

London-based, producer, singer and avant-pop auteur TONY NJOKU releases ‘100% 4 BEAUTY’, the initial offering from upcoming EP ‘JUSTINE’. 

This is the British-Nigerian artist’s first release since late-2019’s ‘YOUR PSYCHE’S RAINBOW PANORMA’, which gained the support of Gilles Peterson (and played We Out Here’s first year – 2019), Tom Ravenscroft, Huw Stephens, Jamz Supernova and more.

Part of the fabric of South London’s exonerated music scene through being a component of the Slow Dance collective (who gave an early platform to bands like Black Midi and Sorry) but first and foremost as a musician himself, Tony has shared stages with Anna Von Hausswolff, Rival Consoles, Goat Girl, Gaika, Jacques, Ider, Kokoko!, PVA and Squid. He’s also been recognised by both Cate Le Bon and Shame, earning a spot on their curated line-up for Sonic City 2019. 

Over the last few years, with a catalogue of acclaimed albums published, Tony Njoku has never looked to pigeonhole his sound in any way. This has led him down dark and haunting tunnels of self-discovery, from which he’s emerged with an ableness to articulate quaking spectrums of emotion through songwriting and performance. 

On new single ‘100% 4 BEAUTY’, Tony unearths his self-proclaimed flaws. He administers a dose of a writhing time-signature, and lyrically bares insecurities and lack of self-worth. 

Straddling neo-soul and crippling quarter-life crisis trip-hop, he says, “This is a song about my dedication to self-examination and self-discovery. Unearthing some of my flaws and inner turmoil (lack of courage, low self-esteem, etc), and discovering what gets me going despite that turmoil.
It’s an ode to beauty, to finding your ‘why’.
