Adrian Younge is back and has a new project on the way. Entitled Something About April II, the LP will serve as the sequel to Younge’s 2011 record Something About April. The official description of the album states that Adrian Younge’s next effort “advances Younge’s musical paradigm with enterprising concepts, and grander compositions, synthesizing the boundaries between dark American soul, and classic European cinema.” Guests on the project include Bilal, Raphael Saadiq, Stereolab’s Laetitia Sadier and more. To introduce the project, Adrian Younge has shared a gritty slice of soul off the LP entitled “Sittin By The Radio.” You can check out that song and its video above.
