Unknown Artist  / Belle Epoque - Yo Son / Bamalama

With “Yo Son”, Prince Language delivers an edit of an 80s obscurity that sounds like it could have been an outtake from Remain In Light-era Talking Heads backing an Arabic R & B group! The track has an insistent groove powered by minimally funky, Nile Rogers-esque guitar lick and a bassline that just does not quit! On the B-side’s Bamalama, NYC’s Lee Douglas chops an obscure Belle Epoque (“Miss Broadway”) track that’s very reminiscent of his own amazing Rong productions. This one has that classic Italo vibe with lots of tight arpeggiated synths. This one reminds us a lot of Tantra’s classic “Hills Of Katmandu”..
