A collection of songs, melodies, grooves and sounds that sit perfectly in the brand new music world it™s part of. Gilles and Bluey are both men who emerged into the Brit funk world. They were both part of this truly thrilling chapter in the story of homegrown music; which manifests itself here in a sumptuous mixture of twanging basslines, spacey synth melodies, clicking beats and wispy, ethereal voices. And for this new set, they™ve got a few like-minded souls along to join the party. Multi-talented Neo-soul Godfather Omar, and celebrated vocalist, Valerie Etienne, both represent Brit funk™s first bounce. Also welcomed in to the fold is musical polymath, Emma-Jean Thackray, Brighton duo Anushka and Floridian trumpeter/vocalist Theo Croker. ˜STR4TASFEAR™ is Gilles and Bluey™s wide-open window into a timeless, wonderful world of Brit funk (Words by Mark Webster, 2022).
