Tin Can by Jack Nimble

Jack Nimble just dropped this unreleased Marvin track on his Soundcloud. COS HE IS NICE. I am assuming he produced it, it would be rude otherwise.

I remember hearing this track ages ago, it is a very lovely thing indeed.

WHAT IS THE SAMPLE THOUGH?

Oh, Mothboy! Dearest Mothboy! Extonian prince of bass. Earliest Akira The Don collaborator. Co-author of the LP version of Liverpool. Remixer of too many Don tracks to mention. Producer of the second best (and unreleased) Crack Village song, Aliens VS Rudeboys VS Dinosaurs VS Apes (In Space). The guy I used to go and freestyle with down at the Foundry when it was full of smashed up old Amstrad computers before Old Street got trendy. The guy who put me on to Odd Future. The guy on whose every album I featured, right up until the end.

Yeah, Mothboy’s dead. Mothboy got merked. And some dude called Esjayes replaced him. But he’ll always be Mothboy to me. And I am proud to present to you, dearest reader, this excellent guest mix from Esyayes, who will forever be known to me as MOTHBOY.

ENJOY!
