V.A. False Idols - Test Of Time

A download code is included. False Idols - the record label launched by Tricky in 2013 - has today announced a fresh compilation album - featuring a selection of mostly unsigned artists from around the world, hand curated by the label boss himself. A limited run LP will be available on 30th August as well as an expanded digital edition. The sixteen tracks featured showcase Tricky’s A&R expertise and vision for the label - allowing a platform and a context for unheard artists who span diverse genres but effortlessly come together into a unique and compelling album collection. Tricky lends his production expertise to tracks including ‘The Moth & The Flame’ by Bob Vylan - the politically focused, London based punk and grime duo, as well as an elegant and streamlined re-edit of ‘Lucien’ from Young Magic, the Brooklyn based group who have toured the US with Tricky in recent years. The two tracks are available today to stream - offering a sample of the diversity and versatility of the album. Deeper into the selection, Tricky has also contributed a remix for Mercury-nominated Bristol punk band Idles, and co-production for the likes of Namibian producer Sean K, bewitching US singer-songwriterBreanna Barbara, and French crooner Rodolphe Burger
