chicken lips – all that you do

Chicken Lips unleash a brand new single, dropping a timeless, funk fuelled bomb entitled ‘All That You Do’ backed with remixes from Joe Goddard, Ben Pearce, The Emperor Machine and The Rhythm Odyssey…

There are few new releases that create such a buzz of excitement as a fresh single from Chicken Lips and with good reason. The Stafford based production duo of Andy Meecham and Dean Meredith have been working together for well over twenty years now, topping the charts with Bizarre Inc. in the 90’s and helping to shape the sound of modern dance music as Chicken Lips. Everything they do has a unique and original feel to it, driven largely by their obsessive attention to detail, their vast musical knowledge and their unending commitment to vintage analog equipment.

2012 saw Meecham and Meredith join forces with South London’s Southern Fried Records and so began a new chapter in the story of Chicken Lips. The duo’s first single ‘D.R.O.M.P’ received a rapturous response and threw the Lips straight back into the limelight and with the recent high profile re-release of their 2001 anthem ‘He Not In’ on Defected with Eats Everything on the remix they are once again a name on everyone’s lips. Now they return with their brand new single, the outstanding ‘All That You Do’.

The package opens with the original version, a gem of a record built around a funk-laden bassline, disco guitar licks and Charmaine Baines’ soaring soulful vocal. ‘All That You Do’ also has one of the simplest and catchiest top riffs that is guaranteed to stick in you head after just one listen! Brilliant!

The remix package starts with two superb versions from The 2 Bears and Hot Chip Man Joe Goddard who reworks ‘All That You Do’ into a brooding and atmospheric slice of House music with a bassline to kill for; vocal and dub versions to fulfil personal preferences. Next up Manchester’s Ben Pearce drops a standout remix that walks the line between modern house, garage and broken beat with consummate ease. To close the release Meecham and Meredith roll out their solo alter egos with Andy providing a stunning Emperor Machine remix that mines the Chicago vaults and Dean a bleeping Acid House winner as The Rhythm Odyssey.

A brilliant new single from Chicken Lips with remixes from Joe Goddard, Ben Pearce, The Emperor Machine and The Rhythm Odyssey… there really isn’t much more you need to say!
