The DJ known around the world as Josh
One has released his latest single, “Further,” feat. Eighty. Like
all Josh One's recent material, the track has been proudly published
on the Boomnote Music independent record label without the influence
of the corporate music industry. An accompanying instrumental version
has also been released. A blend of beats, bass, and some of the most
clarion vocals ever to grace an electronica record, “Further” by
Josh One feat. Eighty deserves the praise and attention of music
lovers everywhere.
Long Beach, CA's Josh One cites as main
influences Portishead, a Tribe Called Quest, the Roots, and
DJ Shadow. Imagining a cross between
these comes very close to the Josh One sound, a sound that is far
more than simply 'good.' A veteran of the turntables since 1990, DJ
Josh One has shared the stage with Mos Def, the Wu-Tang Clan, a Tribe
Called Quest, Sean Paul, the Roots, Kelis, J Dilla, the Black Eyed
Peas, Cypress Hill, Gangstarr, Anthony Hamilton, and many, many more.
He has performed live in England, Germany, most American states and
elsewhere.
Singer and songwriter Eighty is perhaps
best known for her 2014 LP album, “Escape to Mount Cyanide,” but
digital music shelves are well-stocked with her singles and music
videos. Once signed to the Chime label as the lead vocalist and
founder of Jupiter Rising, Eighty is now respected and loved as a
solo artist for her precise, natural singing, thought-provoking
lyrics and frequent creative collaborations.
“Further” is far from the only
notable collab between Josh One and Eighty. 2013 saw Eighty as the
featured vocalist on Josh One's “First,” as well as Josh One as
Eighty's featured DJ on her well-received “Universal” single.
Solidifying the duo as an artistic force, they worked side-by-side to
create a highly stylized version of the seasonal carol, “We Three
Kings.” “Further” represents the most recent example that Josh
One's beat-heavy, groove-based tone and Eighty's confident, elegant
vocals are undeniable compliments to one another.
Fans of Josh One have reason to
celebrate this release of “Further” beyond the beauty of the
track, itself. According to the Boomnote Music label, “Further”
is the first glimpse of an impending Josh One full-length album,
currently untitled, which is expected to drop relatively soon.
Audiophiles can expect Josh One and
Eighty to deliver in every sonic way with “Further” (and should
seek out their other singles by all means, too). “Further” has
been published with an official music video, link provided below.
“Further” by Josh One feat. Eighty
is available online worldwide. Get in early, electronica fans.
