ESG/Mix-Up

[Brother McDuff]

I've been revisiting The Mix-Up quite a bit as of late and am recognizing a considerable ESG influence on a fair chunk of the arrangements. Songs like 14th St Break, The Rat Cage, Biscuits and Butter, and even the Gala Event. The boys were definitely touching on some late-70s/early-80s downtown no-wave feels during the conception of that record.

Suffice to say, if you're into TMU and not familiar with ESG, theyre most def worth a listen.
