Summer-drenched beats from Boy’s Shorts land on Eats Everything’s Pets Recordings this October.
Its been a hell of a ride on the swinging glitter ball of the modern music scene for BOYS’ SHORTS of late. The Greek duo, made up of former superstar music blogger Vangelis and electronic artist Tareq, have enjoyed a positive and productive couple of years since exploding from the islands armed with a wealth of exciting new music.
Boys Shorts have squeezed more into the last 24months than Mr Universe into his second-skin budgie smugglers, featuring their music on an already impressive roster of labels including Permanent Vacation, He-She-They and Cormac’s Polari. With a deepening international diary, support slots for Hot Chip in the can, and a super-fun pop edits series taking off, Boys Shorts, as their name suggest, are riding high and tighter than ever.
Today they make their Pets debut with the wonderful ‘Peaches & Pools’ EP. A collection of well oiled heaters, bold in balearia and backed by two equally naughty reworks from Cooper Saver and Longhair. Dip your toes into a sonic oasis of sunshine vibes and lounging sounds on title track ‘Peaches & Pools’, then slide into the sunset with the melodic keys and bassline groove of ‘Wrapped In Memories’, before hitting the dancefloor to the cosmic cowbell and throbbing synth line of ‘Tricks She Said’.
Cooper Saver goes poolside to planetary with the first of two reworks of the title track. Firing us back in time on a stunning ride of warm bass, broken beats and cascading water. Longhair maintains the 90’s theme, throwing down a bongo rhythm, slap bass and added synths to complete a superb brace of remixes.
From the shores of the Aegean to the beaches of the balearic islands, Boys’ Shorts ‘Peaches & Pools’ EP is the perfect soundtrack for the end of another glorious summer… and beyond….
The ‘Peaches & Pools’ EP is out on Pets Recordings from 20/10/23. Pre order here.
