Krept & Konan team up with Slaves for new live-to-vinyl single at Abbey Road Studios
Rap and punk collide in this new track
South London rap duo Krept & Konan have collaborated with Slaves to release their new single ‘Told You/The Hunter.’
The track was released as part of the Masters of Potential music partnership with Hennessy and Abbey Road Studios, which brings together artists from different genres to produce "one-off musical moments."
Hattie Collins, Masters of Potential panellist and author of This is Grime said: “Krept & Konan are one of the most exciting acts in the UK right now.”
For a long time, grime and rap weren’t allowed in institutions like The Barbican or The Southbank, so for Krept & Konan to be in Abbey Road Studios is another symbol of how far things have come.”
The single has been recorded live-to-vinyl, with the session being filmed for YouTube.
Abbey Road Studios’ mastering engineer Christian Wright said: “As vinyl continues its massive resurgence in the era of streaming, live-to-vinyl celebrates the format by capturing a unique and authentic moment for fans to enjoy.”
