Playgroup – Previously Unreleased Vol 2

“Another incredible instalment of previously unreleased music from what seems to be an inexhaustible archive” – DJ Magazine 9.5

“This batch of lopsided post-punk, photo house and out-there funk from the archives of dancefloor multi-disciplinarian Trevor Jackson sounds like long lost dancefloor rarities, dug up from a David Mancuso Time capsule, But such is Jacksons skill, they’re the antithesis of pastiche.” – Mojo 4/5

“A hedonistic set of mutant disco, groovy post-punk and thumping techno bangers showcases trevor jacksons deep understanding of dance floor dynamics, recorded from 1999-2001 everything here sounds relevant and utterly contemporary” – Q 4/5

“Relentlessly brilliant, a collection of the absolute best sort of backstreet small-club, lights down, low sleezy experimenatalism you could ever hope to hear.” – Mixmag 9/10

Following last year’s critically-acclaimed ‘PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED’ PLAYGROUP album a compilation of tracks taken from a series of 9 X 12” vinyl EPs released in late 2016, a second volume will be available as a limited edition double CD featuring 20 tracks and a 23 track digital collection, on November 3rd on Yes Wave records.

Consisting of mainly of totally unheard tracks and 9 previously only available on vinyl, the music featured is a collection of reworked demos and unreleased recordings. This hedonistic mix of raw disco, dub, funk, dancehall electro, new wave and post punk still sounds as relevant today as it did when initially recorded for the debut PLAYGROUP album from 1997 to 2001.
