Next up to the label is JTP030 is Upskiboo from Copenhagen with the track “Running Like This.”  The download package will include a Tom Eno Disco re-edit.

A bit of blurb here on the muzak! Producer/DJ/collector/graffiti artist Upskiboo from Copenhagen, Denmark is Jack to Phono Records latest release. Upskiboo has previous releases on Melting Pot Music and continues the labels association with Denmark’s varied and cosmopolitan music scene with bands such as Blue Foundation, Ghost Society and The Bass Snatchers.

“Running Like This” becomes the 30th single on Jack to Phono and is back to our roots in terms of beats. The release has echoes of the past, unearthing lost instrumentation, all part of the work and soul of Upskiboo. On the flip side Tom Eno gives the track a disco re-edit worthy of any dancefloor. The track is out on the 28th of November.

In 2009 old friends Jules Davies and DJ Samantha Evans (aka Sam the chef) got together to form the Mice Girls. Sam wanted some original breaks for her DJ sets so they decided to put some bits together. Hitching a ride down the A470, they arrived in Cardiff where they began experimenting with their newly acquired collection of car boot keyboards.

The dynamic duo have forged their low-fi electronica sound with 80s keyboards and a DIY attitude. Twitchcraft becomes our 28th release on Jack to Phono in time for the Halloween season! The Mice Girls have arrived with their wonky sound. Make the most of it before they disappear up their holes! The Mice Girls are receiving support from BBC Wales.

And remember – the feast ain’t over til someone cuts the cheese

You can download the single here

The Mice Girls *Latest*- are receiving support from the John Kennedy XFM Xposure show and were played on the Halloween special! Listen back to the mix on the XFM website
