‘Waves’ Piano Rework By Gonzales

Hot on the heels of this year’s maxi single, Erol Alkan and Boys Noize proudly present the stunning Chilly Gonzales piano rework of ‘Waves’.

The legendary entertainist has been a long time friend of Alkan’s (he was also the only performer to play his London nightclub ‘Trash’ three times during it’s decade long existence) and has currently been putting the finishing touches on his Boys Noize produced next album, set for release next year.

Released November 23rd on an extremely limited edition 10″ of 500, the piano rework comes backed with a spoken word episode from Chilly explaining how one would translate a club ‘banger’ into something your grandfather could get with!

Fresh off his Guinness World Record performance (27 hours, 3 minutes and 44 seconds), Chilly will also be appearing at London’s La Pigalle as part of a residency every Wednesday throughout November for a series of ‘Piano Talk Shows‘, each featuring a cameo appearance from friends:

Wednesday Nov 4th - Jarvis Cocker
Wednesday Nov 11th - Akira The Don & Marawa The Amazing (Hula Hoop Virtuoso)
Wednesday Nov 18th - Cocknbullkid
Wednesday Nov 25 - Sam Eastgate from Late Of The Pier

Tickets are available here and here.
