Botnik - Music

Luke Shepherd And Derek O'Sullivan Formed The Gentle Nu-Jazz Trip-Hop Outfit Mescalito In The Early '90s And Aligned Themselves With A Conflict Of Styles Well Known From The Increasingly Eclectic Wave Of Second-Generation Chill-Out. After A Chance Encounter At The Henley Regatta And An Almost Annual Series Of Personal Relocations Which Took The Band From Bournemouth To London And Finally To Shoreditch Mescalito Secured A Deal With Tummy Touch Records Tim "Love" Lee Leo Young Groove Armada . The Label Issued The Debut One Path In A Million In The Spring Of 2000 And The Album Gained A Cult Following For Showcasing What Would Become The Band's Signature Sound An Under-Explored Clash Of Rhythm-Heavy Emotionally Charged Urban Decay And The Warm Restorative Powers Of Idealized Island Life. We Disappeared In Style Was Released A Year Later A Collection Of B-Sides Remixes And Rarities But Was Too Rushed Too Much Too Soon To Live Up To The Band's Already Quietly Lauded Reputation. ~ Dean Carlson Rovi Https //www.Discogs.Com/artist/9754-Mescalito read less
