Bristol’s excellent Bokeh Versions presents a surprising but brilliant collaboration between avant-pop enigma Leslie Winer and Jay Glass Dubs on the mesmerizing record, “Your Mom’s Favourite Eazy-E Song.” This avant-garde creation seamlessly merges husky trip hop with psychedelic dub styles, showcasing the common ground between Jay’s stripped-down compositions and Leslie’s enigmatic insights. With shared experiences on The Tapeworm label and a mutual love for the depths of dub music, the two artists come together to create a mind-bending journey through their unique soundscapes.
The inner sleeve of the record features Winer’s cryptic lyrics, presented in a visually striking and mirroring fashion to Jay Glass Dub’s intricate arrangements. The listener is invited to explore the outer reaches of consciousness through ricocheting rhythms and Leslie’s stream-of-consciousness musings in tracks like “Woodshedded” and “About The Author.” These mind-altering compositions are designed to bewilder and captivate dancefloors, with Jay’s eccentric beats and Leslie’s haunting vocals leaving bodies entangled and minds spinning.
While this record is undoubtedly a captivating experience in a live setting, its true power lies in solitary consumption. It is in the solitude that one can fully immerse themselves in the album’s strangest corners, such as the ethereal detachment of “No Famous Actors” featuring Winer’s ghostly presence or the intoxicating haze of “Cogged,” where Leslie’s barely-there vocals hover above Jay’s hypnotic strokes. Each track offers a unique and mesmerizing experience, making this record a true beauty that should not be overlooked. So don’t sleep on this exceptional collaboration and let it transport you to new musical dimensions.
