Some more stuff on the
Transit Kings:
this is very travelling stuff and a great honour that malicious damage has been chosen to haul the first few carriages for transit kings...
they may well change lanes at a later junction but for now it's life on the hard shoulder with the malicious crew...
so what's it all about?
it's simple really
it's a meeting of the grandmasters
it was always going to work
combine jimmy cauty's lifetime of pioneering, the ear scratching sonics of alex paterson, the unrivalled pedigree of guy pratt and musical glue courtesy of dom beken and what do you get?
transit kings
between them, they share a desire to give one in the eye to anyone who thought they knew what was coming next and the token ep is their beautifully crafted, speaker-punishing debut transit kings claim to have split up twice and reformed 4 times already... you do the maths, it may well be fabrication, but the truth is we're talking about the combined creative output of some of electronic music's most esteemed and revered pioneers, joined by guests including the legendary johnny marr and simon day...
on token we have 5 spiky, taken-to-the-limits mini masterpieces as an introduction to transit kings and a taster of things to come on the album - now close to completion...
and as the sun sets over the former projection room of ealing studios, tk continue their war on mediocrity and the unnecessary use of the words "war on...", smashing boundaries, igniting imaginations
