Next single - All The Cash feat El-P
When we started writing All The Cash it was an awkward, inaccessible and self indulgent piece of music like a lot of our album demos at the time. We loved the bare bones of the track but it needed to change in a big way. We wanted to make it a little more friendly and playable, it kinda ended up a strange mixture of Sonic Youth, Fad Gadget, Run DMC and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop (or maybe not?), which doesn't sound that friendly really.
We've always loved working with hip hop MC's and if there was one person we wanted to work with it was El-P. His rhymes and production totally blew us away the first time we heard him as part of Company Flow but what really grabbed us was his debut solo album 'Fantastic Damage' and his work as part of 'Cannibal Ox'. After a chance meeting with El before our gig at the Coachella festival in L.A. we decided that he was what All The Cash needed and formulated a plan to work with him which involves lots of boring manager stuff.
We're very proud of the outcome and think there's nothing else out there like it, maybe that's why we find it so hard to describe our music?
Lots of love, Pat & Tom.
