Respected crate-digging publication Wax Poetics has thrown their weight behind Newark, New Jersey’s Zee Desmondes and Teddy Powell, better known as The Jack Moves.
Inspired by a mutual love for Wu-Tang and Lowrider Oldies, the pair decided to parlay their dabbling in music which sampled old school Soul tunes into actually making classic Soul tunes themselves.
The result is “Doublin’ Down”, which finds Zee’s falsetto vocals floating over a boom-bap drum track, wah-wah guitar strums, and dramatic orchestral flourishes.
The single is out now, with a full-length LP to follow, on Wax Poetics Records, in 2015.
