TINDER SURPRISE BY COBBY & LITTEN

Coming at you like a more chilled Sleaford Mods come Steve Cobby - Hull electronica pioneer and alumnus of Fila Brazillia, Hey Rube!, Heights Of Abraham and others - and author, poet and writer in residence at a northern prison, Russ Litten with their LP My People Come From The Sea.
It's poetry and story-telling with musical accompaniment, along the lines of Malcolm Middleton's Words And Music collaboration with David Shrigley or the Ashley Reaks/Joe Hakim (another Hull poet - maybe it's something in the water) album Cultural Thrift. Next level stuff.

FBR008 Drops Digitally/Only 100 CDs June 28, PREORDERS UP NOW... The legendary producer Steve Cobby and formidable author Russ Litten have teamed up for what is likely the most interesting project we have ever released. It is music from another dimension, and it is also multidimensional. Litten's spoken words weave intricate stories into Cobby's world of mechanical sound, and it is unlike anything we have ever heard. Please see these gents' links below, should be out by July... Steve Cobby is a solo producer as well as one of the founders of the legendary duo Fila Brazillia. He also works with Stephen Mallinder of Cabaret Voltaire as Cobby & Mallinder and Hey, Rube! He plays records around the world. http://stevecobby.co.uk/ https://soundcloud.com/steve-cobby Russ Litten is the author of Scream If You Want To Go Faster, Swear Down and Kingdom. He is the Writer In Residence at a prison in the north of England. http://www.russlitten.com/ https://twitter.com/russlitten
