Music
is an exchange of ideas. The 1978ers' (yU & Slimkat) album is
something for those exhausted with the shuck and jive of pop culture,
who believe in the purification rituals offered by hard snares, funky
drum kicks, soul-coughing bass, and deeply rooted vibrations.
Today, The 1978ers release their first single, One-Nine-7-T-8 (free download), from the upcoming album, People of Today.
The track is a manifesto of sorts, reminding us that the story of the
music is told through rhythm and energy forged in the cultural soul of
their birth year and developed ever since. Blake Gillespie, who
interviewed the pair of musicians and debuted the song with IMPOSE this
afternoon, writes "Slimkat produces like he’s the direct
descendent of The Ummah bloodline, while yU’s a foreign native with a
message of brotherhood in the DMV.”
