Unmixed Green Vinyl Version, Numbered Edition of 3000, (includes mixed and unmixed tracks as download)
Late Night Tales celebrate
their 20th anniversary with the release of multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and producer Jordan Rakei’s majestic
compilation. The 28-year-old modern soul icon effortlessly
stamps his own jazz and hip-hop driven sound all over this
gorgeous array of handpicked tracks. A beautifully layered
blend that is mirrored in the music he’s made, it comes as
no surprise that such a supremely gifted songwriter should
deliver a mix that is all about the song.
“I wanted to try and showcase as many people as I knew on
this mix. My idea of Late Night Tales was to distil a series of relaxing moments; the whole conceptual sonic of relax-
ation. So, I was trying to think of all the collaborators and
friends that I knew, who’d recorded stuff with this horizontal
vibe. Plus, I was also trying to help my friends' stuff get into
the world. I know the story of Khruangbin blowing up after
appearing on the series (in fact, I think that's how I discovered
them). So, the main idea was to create a certain atmosphere,
but also to help some of my favourite collaborators and bud-
dies to give their songs a little push out into the world. Hope
you like it” Jordan Rakei
