burnski + manik – yjg
M A N I K makes his fourth release on Culprit, making him (along with Lee Foss) the label´s true “resident” producer. Alongside him Burnski makes his full debut for Culprit, having been responsible for one of the label´s most memorable songs of 2012 – his remix of Subb-an´s ‘What I Do’.
BACKGROUND
• Leeds bred but Berlin based Burnski and NYC’s M A N I K have combined successfully with two well regarded singles for Franck Roger´s Real Tone Records in the past year. This is their third single together, which stretches their musicality to suit Culprit´s sound.
• ‘Yellow Jacket Girl’ takes the duo´s retro house inspired sound palette and takes into a deeper and more sultry territory, with suggestive lyrics penned and sung by M A N I K adding a subtle element of sleaze to the song´s low slung groove.
• Each artist picked a remixer of his choice – Leeds connection between Burnski and Laura Jones; M A N I K selecting fellow rider of the techno/disco line Maxxi Soundsystem. Both remixers are artists Culprit has been eager to add to its roster.
