  1. Out now the latest 45 release from Big AC Records... Nick Corbin & The Hang Ups - Feelin' Kinda Lucky / Time Alone - Big AC Records Released Friday 20th October 2023, the label release notes and purchase details follow below ‘Feelin’ Kinda Lucky’ is the first single from Nick Corbin & The Hang Ups, recorded direct to tape at Kitty,Daisy & Lewis’ Durham Sound Studio in Kentish Town. Corbin has previously fronted Acid Jazz act New Street Adventure and his own solo project as well as writing for the likes of Emma Noble, Laville, Lack of Afro and Carmy Love. This collaboration with his touring band brings a raw edge to proceedings; a self-produced gem capturing all the energy of live performance in the studio. Corbin says “‘Feelin’ Kinda Lucky’ is about waking up and feeling as though all is right in the world. You don’t know why or how but you carry that energy and satisfaction through the day. We tried to capture that with the musical arrangement too - there are these breaks throughout that build anticipation about the next section, culminating in a raucous outro, where we intentionally sped up, taking advantage of the freedom the analogue recording process gave us” “I had recorded at Durham Sound with Phono 48 a couple of years before and knew we could get a sound reminiscent of the Muscle Shoals studio, particularly with the rhythm section. Combining that with a few other Soul, Jazz and even Americana influences from the other guys in the band has given us a really refreshing mix of old and new – we hope people will find it an uplifting song to listen to!” ‘Feelin’ Kinda Lucky’ is the first of two new recordings which will sit either side of a limited edition 45, now available from https://www.bigacrecords.com and various record stores including our very own Source Store.

  15. double down info About This Release: Sam Don's new comp of UK Underground Soul is on the way 13th of October, but in the lead up we are dropping a couple of singles from the LP to get you hyped. New discoveries come from many places, and many great new soul records from the uk have been turned up in the last 10 years. I completely flipped when Sam dropped this Taffy (Katherine Quay) White label. More known for her huge Italo Euro pop hits, this UK white is an utterly stunning piece of deep UK soul and may well be her best ever recording to date. How this did not take off and become a hit is beyond me.
  16. digital/lp only ? Stream Kendra's new track 'Fine Right Here': https://colemine.lnk.to/kcr130 Order her new LP 'I Am What I'm Waiting For': https://colemine.lnk.to/kcr12030 'Fine Right Here,' a bonus cut from Kendra Morris's brand new LP 'I Am What I'm Waiting For' (which has received incredible support from the likes of Rolling Stone France, KCRW, WNYC, Flood Magazine, and countless others), takes a look into the deeply introverted side of Kendra. "This song is about being ok just sitting inside and missing the party," Kendra explains. "It’s the antithesis to FOMO." Written to accompany a rainy day, the song feels like you're being enveloped in a hug. Sonically, the track tips its hat to Ethiopian Jazz and soul of the 70s, like Rose Royce and the Delfonics. The warm vibraphone, sturdy bass line, and vocal reverb create a layered tapestry of sound that wraps around your shoulders and drifts into your ears. Co-written and produced by Torbitt Schwartz (AKA Little Shalimar) of Run the Jewels, 'Fine Right Here' is a welcome departure to the upbeat nature of 'I Am What I'm Waiting For' and truly makes the listener realize that they can, indeed, be "fine right here..."
