soy un caballo & tunng robin [needno005 .2009]
trackist:
1. Robin – Tunng version
2. Robin – Soy un Caballo version
They’re one of the most distinctly English-sounding bands around, but the latest single from Tunng sees the London-based band hooking up with some like-minded souls from Belgium, the hotly tipped Soy Un Caballo. Released exclusively on gold 7” vinyl, this extra-special limited single has Tunng’s version of Soy Un Caballo’s Robin on the A-side, with the band’s original version on the flip.
“We met Soy Un Caballo on tour in Belgium and France and ended up drinking wine and swapping numbers,” says Tunng frontman Sam Genders. “We kept in touch and they asked if we’d be up for doing an English version of one of their songs for a seven. I remembered Robin from seeing them play live and it was my favourite.”
Sam translated the song from a rough version that the band sent over, then recorded it at Tunng central in London. It’s fascinating to hear the two treatments – Tunng’s typical fireside warmth, and the Belgians’ delicately trippy original.
“Beautiful Belgian lush pop, with Robin being 2009′s best smoochy song so far. Imagine being the protagnist of a blissful technicolour 60s new wave movie with a beautiful blonde girl shot in Super 8 stock. Er… this could be a perfect soundtrack. Old Pure Groove faves Tunng return to provide a cover on the flip that is also divine.” – Pure Groove
