It's been a year since Ashley Beedle brought you the critically and commercially acclaimed YARDISM EP on Raf (2 Bears) and Toddla T's Girls Music imprint and now it's time for round two.
The Yardism EP received mega feedback across the board from DJ's as diverse as Gilles Peterson, Ross Allan, Annie Mac, Toddla T, Disclosure, Ben Westbeech, Joe Goddard (Hot Chip), Zed Bias and T.Williams.
Radio support came from BBC Radio1, BBC 6 Music, Rinse FM, NTS and stations internationally. And was Record of the month in DJ Magazine.
The first EP was an answer back to the kids of the then emerging 'Bass' scene. Bringing reggae, soul and soca flavours married with the classic house vibe which has been a constant through Ashley's career.
The follow up YARDISM 2 brings you all that and then some in true Beedle style.
Saturday (Let Me See You) is inspired by Ashley's close compadre and house behemoth Phil Asher, letting loose with boogie vibes, marching drums, spacey synths and disco vocals.
Amen (Hit That Koochy) sees Ashley team up with the godfather Zed Bias to bring you a tongue-in-cheek booty track. A mesh of computer funk and JA vibes, this one is out on it's own.
Dett (Shock Tribute) is Ashley's homage to his old sound system, Shock, in the wake of the passing of Ricardo Da Force - Shock member and MC/DJ extraordinaire who featured on many a familiar track from the infamous and legendary KLF. Dett gives us a breakbeat driven groove with a nod to classic UK hip hop. A real soundboy killer with the mighty Zed Bias once again on co-production.
Ghetto Luv (Yardist Dubplate Cut) is an instrumental which takes influences as diverse as Detroit Techno and Kosmiche which is driven by a dread future groove.
Early Radio Support from Gilles Peterson.
