Release Notes:
Joe Corrales, Jr. aka Yppah (pronounced "Yippah") is back. The
young Mexican-American from Texas debuted on Ninja Tune in
2006 with his album, "You Are Beautiful At all Times," and
now, in the build up to his sophomore effort, "They Know What
Ghost Know," he returns with the superb "Gumball Weekend
Machine EP".
Fashioning a rockier sound than last time out, the EP draws on
a cultural heritage that took in My Bloody Valentine alongside
hip hop and which is heavily influenced by various forms of
electronic music, psychedelic soul and rock.
"Gumball Machine Weekend" itself sounds like southern-fried
Go! Team with more soul, "The Drag" is a feedback-driven,
fuzz-bassed epic, "Shutter Speed" is psychedelic teen
nostalgia while album title track "They Know What Ghost Know"
is West Coast rock reimagined as trance-rite, a spooky,
echo-heavy drum-roll-filled set of repetitions and overlaps
that builds into a tune which DJ Shadow in his heyday might
have dreamed of making.
