Deniz Kurtel & Tanner Ross - I Knew This Would Happen feat. Pillowtalk ( Extended Single Edit )

Effortlessly weaving entirely new sub-genres, while daring to convey their fragility, Deniz is
once again inventing a fresh sound palette, combining the music with visual art and
creating a deeper live experience for the tour entitled ‘Double Exposure’ that will
accompany her new LED installation, ‘The Introspectacular’. Mastering a new dexterity
across the whole album, Deniz conquers stillness and rich rhythms, once again turning
house on its head with an unhurried approach more in line with a hip hop pacing that
enriches the sound of tomorrow, bringing attitude back to electronic music. Going
beyond the realms of the expected, the striking artistic passion emanating from this
petite girl from Turkey beats through every track.
With a collaborative approach typical to the Wolf + Lamb label, the artists featured are
part of the tight-knit yet loosely woven family collective now termed the Marcy All Stars.
Much akin to the Wild Bunch (the early Massive Attack) or Soul II Soul, their visions are
explored and shaped through a fluid, dynamic and supportive experience. On the EP’s
selected tracks, Deniz, along with hotly tipped producers Tanner Ross, San Francisco’s
Pillow Talk and the young Brown university graduates Voices of Black, deliver an array of
moods and sounds - from sensually sublime album opener ‘I Knew This Would Happen’ in
a special extended version to the jazz infused ‘The Beat Drops’, full of deep atmosphere
and heavy bass groove and animated 80s funk of ‘Thunder Clap’.
