Work Come First [12" Vinyl]

Tuskegee continues apace with 'Work Come First' from Life on Planets, a flawless blend of classic house, R&B, and conscious songwriting, remixed with finesse by Omar S and Soul Clap's Charles Levine.A modern-day hymn to hustle and stride, 'Work Come First' doesn't chip away at the soul in pursuit of success. Working in collaboration with like-minded producer Seven Davis Jr., Phil Celeste applies his key alias to a triumphant, full-bodied songwriting moment. Led by beautiful organ piano, mingling with the artist's defiant vocals and defined by the feel of a full live band, 'Work Come First' continues Life On Planets' beguiling, genre-crossing journey.In ever-charismatic and minimal mode, Detroit icon Omar S breaks down 'Work Come First' into core elements for the floor, blowing out the system and applying Life on Planets' vocal performance to a raw, lo-fi arrangement with a hint of street soul. In neat parallel, Charles Levine delves into the more full-bodied, rich elements of the track, tripping on the sophisticated funk long associated with the Soul Clap founder's oeuvre.Complimenting both takes, producer Seven Davis Jr. Provides an alternate 'Sev's mix', a little rougher around the edges for dancers under red lights.Tracklisting:A1.
