‘Small Steps LP: Singles, Versions & Unreleased Tracks’
Chris Read delivers his debut album for Breakin Bread touching on all the cornerstones of the label’s sound: Soul, Funk, Hip Hop, Disco and Tropical flavours. “Small Steps” rounds up the best tracks from Chris’s many popular 7-inch releases for the label, placing them alongside new alternate versions and previously unreleased tracks. Not one to be held back by the restraints of genre classification, Chris’s productions cover a lot of ground, drawing from a palette of found sounds born out of the Hip Hop traditions of hunting for the unusual among the cast aside and forgotten. The resulting album is gloriously mixed bag of authentic sounding cuts influenced by groove led music from across the globe…
