The Beatnik

A 2 track acid jazz single (7m 27s) — released December 1st 2017 on Lovemonk

Taking a tiny break from the vintage sounds of his stunning La Sombra album, Chip Wickham lets his hair hang down with surefire floor filler 'The Beatnik'. Funky wah-wah guitar licks, an uptempo breakbeat and his signature transverse flute give the tune an impetuous feel – the perfect soundtrack for a high-speed car chase.

The flipside is not quite as stormy. In fact, 'Rebel No.23' is a return to the jazz grooves of his debut album, or indeed a taste of what's to come on his followup album, slated for release in 2018.

'The Beatnik / Rebel No.23' is a limited release on 7-inch vinyl only (not even on digital!).
