Tumble UP by Lazers & Stuff

The release is an EP with two tracks from Lazers & Stuff: “Tumble UP” and “Jack The Beats”. This is the long-awaited follow-up to the previously released “Bagels For A Hangover Lunch” EP from Lazers & Stuff.

The EP is inspired by "Bubblegum": African pop music from the 80s and 90s. This genre originated within the social response to the damage caused by colonialism and apartheid. In these years music offered an escape from reality, so spending money on records was not uncommon. As a result, labels acquired more capital and the music industry received a huge boost. But music was more than an escape, it could provide a platform for political opinion. At the same time, local artists began mixing international music trends with their sounds, opinion and synthesizers. This is how Bubblegum was created: full of cheezy synth lines and hidden political opinion.

To give the genre a boost, Lazers & Stuff released a Bubblegum EP. He used the old cheezy synthesizers and put everything in a new jacket. What can you expect? Catchy melodies and slick bass lines
