J. Birly

12" : £ 7.38

Super soul 12" from the CGN/KCMO connection. The Cologne based producer team The Ins (Twit One & friends) has teamed up with Miles Bonny from Kansas City for a 3 track 12". A dedication EP to the one and only Jerry Butler - the original lead singer of the Impressions alongside Curtis Mayfield.

"J.Birly" is a cover of the Jerry Butler classic "Just Because I Really Love You" as used by Dilla for the "Luv U" beat on the "Donuts" album.  "Lumberjack Soul" aka "The Miles Bonny Theme Song" was recorded at the Treehouse studio in Cologne, during Miles' European tour this summer, produced by Testiculo Y Uno (aka Hulk Hodn + Twit One). 'Breakfast" was also recorded at the Treehouse and features fellow MPM artist Fleur Earth on the second verse. Flip the record for all three instrumentals!
