Snippets from Dego & Kaidi's LP 'A So We Gwarn'. Dego Kaidi Tatham Sound Signature 2000 Black. Album release date: 22 September 2017.
On A So We Gwarn, Dego and Kaidi's first album together, they delve deeper into a craft they've been refining, along with a cast of trusted collaborators, for nigh on two decades. The LP arrives on Sound Signature, whose founder, Theo Parrish, has close ties to London and its music culture, having held down a regular slot at Plastic People, the club that was home to Co-Op during its heyday. A So We Gwarn's first two songs hint at something special. The rest of the album doesn't reach these heights. But there are still several tunes to savour, including two that don't make it onto the vinyl LP: the smoky boom-bap of "Sista's Love," and the bass-heavy squelch of "Shy Makku. And then there's "The Sorrell Sweet"-it's easy to imagine Parrish treating the stuttered rhythm to his trademark EQing-and "1. 096 N 7. 975 W," a breezy excursion into instrumental boogie.
Dego & Kaidi Tatham will release their first collaborative album, A So We Gwarn, on Sound Signature.
Here's something to set the pulse racing: a collaborative debut album (on Sound Signature, no less) from London broken beat veterans Dego and Kaidi Tatham. As with their previous joint releases on 2000 Black, Rush Hour, Eglo and, of course, Sound Signature, it's the duo's love of rich, jazz-fuelled musicality, sun-kissed melodies and loose, languid rhythms that shines through. There are naturally nods towards disco, boogie, jazz-funk, Afrobeat, hip-hop and classic "bruk", with a stellar cast list of guest musicians and vocalists swinging by to lend a hand
