NARRATIVE______________________________________________________________________
A. Sayōnara - KNEECAP and Paul Hartnoll
When it came to following up 'sound of the summer so far' single THE RECAP Ft. Mozey, Kneecap had it in their heads that they wanted to make a proper 100% rave festival banger. A few days in the studio with one of the masters of that art form - Orbital's Paul Hartnoll - and the Belfast (and Derry) three piece emerge with an absolute classic of the genre - a mind pounding, drum heavy, relentless club monster of a single.
"Having worked on the Orbital track Belfast for the fantastic Kneecap film, I was delighted to be asked by the lads to help them make a rave festival banger. They loved the track and did it proud with their lyrics - it was all so easy and natural, just as a good collaboration should be. Hopefully, you’ll be lucky enough to be in a field this summer and hear it in its natural habitat , big , loud, and unashamed!"

B. THE RECAP – KNEECAP and MOZEY
An astonishingly instant summer-smash in waiting, the West Belfast trio collaborated with drum & bass producer Mozey on the Kemi Badenoch baiting track which received its live debut at their momentous headline appearance at this year’s Wide Awake Festival in Brockwell Park, London. (Mozey appears courtesy of Rinse.)
Riding in on a punchy bassline and a drum track that effortlessly shifts from post punk rumble to drum and bass explosion, ‘THE RECAP’ is a massive statement of intent from the most talked about band in the world and is a guaranteed rallying cry at festivals across the country all summer.
