STR4TA - STR4TASFEAR

Limited edition white vinyl

2022 release from Gilles Peterson and Jean-Paul 'Bluey' Maunick

Welcome to STR4TASFEAR, Bluey and Gilles' second STR4TA album. 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 into 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.
