OYOBI /KAREN LEE ANDREWS
Don’t Let It Go To Your Head (Repress)
OYOBI feat. Karen Lee Andrews
Don’t Let It Go To Your Head / Se Te Va
Gamble & Huff/Jean Carn cover – Vinyl 45 Repress
After selling out the first pressing, in just over a month, we’ve repressed this much-loved disco-tinged reinterpretation of Jean Carn‘s signature tune with new artwork/colour scheme and 3 bonus stickers. Commissioned by Groovescooter, Sydney Latin trio Oyobi knocked us out when they heeded the call to turn Don’t Let It Go To Your Head into a more dancefloor-ready/DJ-friendly track. Working with the amazing Australian singer Karen Lee Andrews, the cover version’s soaring, heartfelt vocals coupled with a B-side original that is equally motivating and further in tune with Oyobi’s tropical roots, percussionist/producer Vincent Sebastian, bassist Adam Ventoura and in-demand keyboardist Daniel Pliner prove again why they’re a band to watch. Both tracks have been mastered beautifully by William Bowden and pressed to vinyl. No Digital on this one.
You can PURCHASE the 7″ VINYL from our Bandcamp store.
