Song of the Day: Mr Jukes & Barney Artist feat Kofi Stone- Check The Pulse
One of our dreams for the album was to have a Cypher style song! We knew Kofi would be the perfect fit and boy did he deliver on this one. It's guaranteed to make you bop your head, especially the end section where we go head to head, Barney says. The Locket features ten tracks cut from sessions that span over eighteen months. It's sunshine-dappled, psych-tinged, hip-hop flavoured, leftfield pop with samples and beats, an utterly joyful listen from start to finish; invaluable in a time when everyone is hard-pressed to find ways to brighten their days. During a period of prolonged inactivity for Bombay Bicycle Club, frontman Jack Steadman scratched an itch to do something by himself. He went by the moniker of Mr Jukes and released an album, God First, in 2017. We say 'by himself' but it was very much an open-door policy, resulting in a collaborative record that brought contributions by legends such as Charles Bradley, De La Soul, Horace Andy, Lianne La Havas, BJ The Chicago Kid and Lalah Hathaway. The project also features a contribution from Barney Artist, who Jack had quite simply stumbled upon on a Spotify playlist and never forgotten.

RUBY
if you happen to be a fan of Bombay Bicycle Club, then you were saddened (like me) when they took a hiatus in 2016.
but thank goodness they did, because we now have Mr Jukes (aka Jack Steadman, the former frontman of BBC).
his style is very similar to his band’s, incorporating indie folk with electronica. not to mention bad ass beats.
the first time i heard “Ruby” was in a Starbucks just a few months ago, and i immediately Shazam-ed it. after discovering who the artist was, it became my newest obsession. the instrumentation is hypnotizing and that BEAT. perfect for working out, walking through city streets or dancing alone in your living room.
hear it below.
his album God First was released in 2017.
Finally got to see Mr Jukes (AKA Jack Steadman from Bombay Bicycle Club) last weekend at Rich Mix! From the beautiful sounds of the records he played to the trippy moving images on the back wall and the band who OOZED with soul it was a stellar performance.
Special shout out to Sarah (the keyboard player) who managed to play like an absolute BEAST while her stand was broken and her keyboard was sliding off into the audience! It was a super cute moment when members of the audience lovingly held up her keyboard while she played (awesome right?!).
Of course it was nice to hear Jukes’ rendition of ‘Soft Machine’s Third’, but I have to admit I (and the crowd) went crazy when he came back for an encore to play ‘Angels’ from his last album ‘ God First’.
All in all, it was an intimate night of quality jazz played by musicians of a high standard; Jukes is definitely worth watching live.
More on music soon...
