BBE releases Georg Levin's 'Falling Masonry' EP

Three tracks that encompass the general mood and feel of what is about to come on the full-length Everything Must Change, due in January 2010.

Like most of the tracks on the LP, the title song ‘Falling Masonry’ was recorded with Georg’s live band helped out with some guest musicians. It's a soul-rock influenced song. There are elements of Al Green as well as Led Zeppelin or even The Beatles if you listen closely. It starts off slow and sensual before getting into a heavily laden middle section, finally reaching a dramatical climax, supported by a string section, psychedelic noises and distorted guitars.

‘Runaway’ is an early eighties influenced, laid back pop song with some rhythmic disco elements, analogue synths and a horn section. There will be a video by Paranoid Picture’s Tobias Perse due to be shot in New York in mid-June. The song will be featured on Dixon’s next compilation for Innervisions.

‘The Better Life’ sees Georg in old form duetting with his longtime partner Clara Hill. Like some of his previous releases, this song sounds like a funky soul classic yet still it is undeniably fresh and TODAY. Masters At Work’s Louie Vega, Phil Asher and Boddhi Satva are working on remixes for this, which will be released later this summer.

Just a quick reminder that Karizma's new album "A Mind Of Its Own V2.0 - The Upgrade" is available now on CD and very limited Double Vinyl!

Karizma has taken his unique sound to the next level as he continues to defy categorization, moving between his customarily ferocious club bangers through down-tempo burners, atmospheric soundtracks and even smoothed out soul with featured vocalists Monique Bingham, Fruity and Djinji Brown on rap duty.

To celebrate this release there will be a very special launch party this Sunday 5th July @ Bar Sequence in Islington (43 Essex Road, N1) where Karizma will be presenting the new album as only he knows how.
