Lupe feat. Josh Caffe - Give Me Body
Lupe & Josh Caffe join the Twirl roster this April with their collaborative ‘Give Me Body’ EP, accompanied by two remixes from Work Them boss Spencer Parker.
Amsterdam’s Lupe has been steadily making a name for himself over the past year via residencies at some of his hometowns most infamous clubs like Studio 80 and Sugar Factory as well as picking up support on his own material from the likes of Honey Soundsystem, Tom Trago and Hercules & Love Affair’s Andy Butler. Here we see Lupe joining forces with London based producer and DJ Josh Caffe hot off the back of his Night Sheen Records label launch which saw him collaborate with Twirl co-founder Alinka, Snuff Crew, The Carry Nation and more.
Taking the lead on the package is the original mix of ‘Give Me Body’ which sees the duo deliver bumpy house beats, choppy acid bass stabs and Josh Caffe’s divaesque hooky vocal stylings before the solo outing from Lupe ‘The Doctor’ tips the focus over to crunchy 808 drums, 303 stab sequences an amalgamation of hypnotic vocal licks.
Berlin based Work Them head honcho Spencer Parker then steps up to close the package with two takes on ‘Give Me Body’, the ‘Workmix’ is up first, offering lumpy kicks, shuffled rides and tension building strings alongside stuttering vocal cuts before the ‘Workdub’, as the name would suggest, strips things back to the rawer state of gritty drums and vacillating string samples.
Lupe & Josh Caffe’s ‘Give Me Body’ EP is out on Twirl 27th April 2018.
