Moments Worth Listening For
The heavy, ominous bassline introduction to I Chase the Devil that transforms into a rhythmic strut.
The unexpected music-hall charm of the Kinks' Lola reimagined through a bouncy ska lens.
The soulful, harmonized chorus of Israelites that pays respectful homage to Desmond Dekker while adding a London grit.
