After a four-year break from the studio, L.A.�s finest practitioners of party funk & breaks, BREAKESTRA, return to the fray with a brand new studio album on Strut this September, �TIL TO TILL�. The band�s recordings have been rare to savour, numbering an early live cassette-only mixtape, a handful of singles and second mixtape release on Stones Throw and a debut studio album, �Hit The Floor�, on Ubiquity in late 2005. For 2009, Breakestra return with their long-awaited sophomore set exploring all colours of the funk spectrum. Built around the vision of �Music Man� Miles and Mixmaster Wolf (as well as producing, Miles plays drums, bass, guitars, keys and percussion on the record), the trademark Breakestra touches remain intact: Wolf fronts tough breakbeat jams �Dark Clouds Rain Soul� and Stones Throw single �Low Down Stank�; Miles himself brings his soulful vocals to �Need A Little Love� and �I Don�t Wanna Wait� and amazing new female vocalist Afrodyete recalls the heyday of JB�s Funky People on the terrific �Come On Over�. The album even journeys into psychedelic soul (on the fuzzy �Show Me The Way�) and stripped-back New Orleans organ stylings on instrumental cut, �North-East To Nippon�. �Dusk �Till Dawn� is a tribute to Tackett�s late DJ partner at Rootdown, DJ Dusk, whose life was tragically taken in a road accident in 2007. Dusk himself appears alongside Jurassic 5�s Charlie 2na on the funky rap joint �Posed To Be� and the album is a fitting tribute to a much-loved L.A. figure and integral member of a scene which has become globally respected. Breakestra�s �Til to Till� is released late August / early September on Strut. The release will be accompanied by world tour dates beginning in October. TRACKLISTING 1. NEED A LITTLE LOVE 2.
