London, UK. (Top40 Charts/ V2 Music) -
Black Affair unveils the new Electro R'n'b of Steve
Mason with a cascade of synths and beats on debut single TAK! ATTACK! Released on V2 on October 22nd.
A pouting, sensual electro-pop b-side in Blush and a remix from Brixtonian beatsmith SuicideDogz, give the first taster of Black Affair's forthcoming long player Pleasure Pressure Point set for release in the New Year.
Mixed with Warp artist Jimmy Edgar in New York, the Black Affair have delivered a collection of atmospheric, catchy, body rockin' tunes realising once again Steve Mason's status as one of UK music's great non-conformers.
Steve honed his haunting pop under the gaze of Myspace scrutiny, posting new songs, ideas and studio experiments as and when they happened, to a growing band of online fans.
Along the way an amalgam of musical allies amongst the new generation original artists. From Jimmy Edgar to SuicideDogz, through to London MC MissOddkid who duets on the future Black Affair release Same Same.
