BLNK-17 | Agents of Woe - R U Ready For Love?
Tracklisting:
01 R U Ready For Love?
02 R U Ready For Love? (Scott Ferguson Remix)
Agents of Woe first caught our attention when label co-chair Josh Dahlberg was invited to a gig in Memphis, the home to legendary soul and blues label, Stax Records. Upon hearing a single rough recording from AOW after the gig, he petitioned them for more songs, which ultimately led to the studio sessions with Detroit’s best kept audio engineering secret, Andy Toth. R U Ready For Love? is the first single from those infamous recording sessions to see its formal release.
The original mix of R U Ready… resembles many genres but cannot simply be described by one. At the core it’s electronic pop, but it’s also as much house as it is funk and as much techno as it is soul. Agents of Woe are a great example of what happens when a band executes dance music well. Just in time for that corporate bloodsucker of a holiday Valentine’s Day, Agents of Woe deliver to make you get up before you get down.
A critic’s choice and Ferrispark head of state, Scott Ferguson makes use of the band’s guitar tracks, splicing them to create a different energy altogether from that of the original. By adding his own technique toward music production, Ferguson creates a new high-speed link between the terminals of Detroit House and New York Disco.
