Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band: Raise It Up / Space Vinyl 7″

“In the wake of their new album Expansions, Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band drop another must have two-sider.On the A side they take on the J DIlla produced Slum Village club banger ‘Raise It Up’ and give it the BRSB treatment. SV fans will lose their shit when this comes on. Heads will be nodding from the first beat of the opening drum break and when they start playing the top line on the pans its a wrap. Now that they have your attention they take the tune and expand on it changing the arrangement and lacing it with brass and guitar parts that keep pushing the tune to higher and higher levels of energy.The B finds BRSB taking on the infamous Galt MacDermot tune ‘Space’. Made famous in the hip hop world when it was sampled for Busta Rhymes classic ‘Woohah Got You All In Check’ it is about to receive another boost from Bacaos version. Both sides of this 7 are going to be mainstays in DJ sets for years to come.” – Big Crown Records
