BOY AZOOGA FACE BEHIND HER CIGARETTE

After less than a year of gigging, Cardiff-based newcomers Boy Azooga have just signed to legendary indie label Heavenly Recordings. Combining elements of psych, indie and funk, their Heavenly debut, 'Face Behind Her Cigarette' is an impressive experimental arrival. Discussing the track singer Davey Newington said: "This song is basically just a celebration (rip off) of the late great William Onyeabor. I wanted the percussion to be purposefully a bit too loud, maybe by the usual standard. Loads of Onyeabor's percussion is blaring in the mix, but it makes it sound so live and feely. I wanted to create that feeling of being in the room where the music is being played." Check it out here now. -HLMX
