bosq of whiskey barons feat kaleta - up & down - ubiquity - vinyl

New Copy

Genre: Disco

1. Up & Down (NYC 91 Mix)
2. Up & Down (Nigeria 76 Mix)

Bosq from Whiskey Barons is back with more heat for the dancefloor in the form of a double 12” release. Both feature songs that will be on the upcoming full-length album but also include alternate takes and exclusives to this single. Check!

“Up & Down” continues the formula of classic sounding dance grooves with heavy Afro Latin influences throughout on this special all instrumental offering and features the reunion of Bosq with Nigerian composer / producer / singer Kaleta, who this time around remains an instrumentalist, handling guitar and the horn arrangements. The track - "Up & Down" went through so many revisions and mixes that it could only be properly represented with 2 very different versions. The NYC 91 mix focuses on the dance floor with pulsing african drums and a scorching horn section, while the NIgeria 76 mix keeps it organic and funky with a live kit taking over for the drum machines and a new arrangement.
