We all know about footwork. Über-rhythmic, neck-breakingly fast, charmingly slapdash in execution; this is fight music, placed squarely at the forefront of a physical battle. We also know about RP Boo, and you most certainly don’t need me to tell you about his revered standing within the ever-expanding footwork universe. But here’s somethin’ new: he has a new album forthcoming on Planet Mu, called Fingers, Bank Pads and Shoe Prints. Tight!
The hallmarks of Boo’s sound — twisted vocal cuts and assimilative sampledelia — were resonant with footworkers, global audiences, and TMTers alike on 2013’s Legacy, as well as the recently-released Classics Vol. 1, so word of this latest set from one of the genre’s finest comes as very welcome news indeed. And with track titles like “Freezaburn” and “B’Ware,” you know the heat is gonna be certifiably on come June 29. Boo’s bringin’ the fight, and it’s all on you to last the rounds.
