 Yungun Push 12"

Another cracking twelve inch from Brighton based Janomi Records. This time the enigmatic Yungun drops some smile inducing verses across some supremely danceable hip hop arrangements courtesy of Ben Grymm. A-side ‘Push’ works the angles with a shuffling break and hoover bassline whilst the flip ‘Spit Fire’ takes a more traditional aggy approach with bigger drums alongside organ/string drops. Overall, Yungun handles vocals with relaxed ease to hand out a lesson in riding two different beats with complete mic control. My favourite track was the charismatic b-side with Kyza’s nice cameo verse n’ chorus couplet – a real grower.
