MH-029 Nobody - Fancy The Mush seven-inch series continues with a strong offering from Los Angeles producer Nobody featuring guest vocals from Kurt Heasley of The Lilys. Side A is a full cover of The Kinks' 1966 classic, "Fancy," with ornate strings, daisy-age hip-hop percussion, sweeping synth touches, and Heasley channeling Ray Davies using a throwback vocal style that has made The Lilys one of the most respected purveyors of a modern take on '60s psychedelia. Side B is a complete instrumental reworking of the track by Nobody that brings to the forefront space rock elements of the original mix to create a drone-drenched masterpiece.

This is the next hectic ltd seven-inch from Mush featuring a vocal from Kurt Heasley covering "Fancy" from The Kink's 1966 album Face To Face. A gorgeously psych weird cover with phased retro strings, rolling beats, smokescape vocals, cracked wind power synths and believe it or not a percussive sample from Unknown Dj's classic "808 Beats." The B-side features a drone based ambient version, basically it removes the vocals and beats - adding chimes - Gotta love it. Surprisingly essential. - Boomkat
