On the A side is \"Shooby Dooby\", a slice of future funk with a bubbling analog synth bassline and Aru-2's signature talkbox vocals, while on the B-Side \"Boost Step\" takes things a little more downtempo into instrumental hip-hop territory, still rife with funk vibes, and synth solos. Aru-2 and Kzyboost are both Tokyo-based producers, known for their work in the Japanese underground hip hop scene. Aru-2 got his start producing for prominent J-hip hop artists like ISSUGI, SENNINSHO, Tamaki Roy, and KID FRESINO. His first EP, 'Arµ-2,' arrived in 2013, and was featured in OkayPlayer, while the collaborative album 'TANH ,' with Lee (asano+ryuhei) came out in 2014 and was critically acclaimed by Pitchfork. Kzyboost specialises in the talk-box and is one of the best known talk-box artists in Japan. He's released two studio albums, 'Callin' U' (2019), and 'Keep Smoovin'' (2020, fusing West Coast hip hop, and 90s R\u0026amp;B and soul. The two artists bonded over their shared love of music through sessions at Aru-2\"s home studio, resulting in the upcoming collaboration. 'Shooby Dooby \/ Boost Step' is due out on Brooklyn's Bastard Jazz Recordings in July, ahead of the duo's debut LP 'Hot Pants' in August. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA\r Shooby Dooby\r \r B\r Boost Step\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 7\/30\/21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: 7\" Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Dance \u0026amp; Electronic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Aru-2 \u0026 Kzyboost","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42029359464529,"sku":"2OJ7BC-2NFT-M3","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/aru-2-kzyboost-shooby-dooby-boost-step_Mn1ry.jpg?v=1759475797","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/products\/aru-2-kzyboost-shooby-dooby-boost-step-vinyl","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
