Running Away / Whip It

Star Creature by way of Tugboat Editions delivers a double-stacked single, sporting Roy Ayers’ timeless crate-staple “Running Away,” a record that has probably stayed in some DJ bags for about half a century. A deeply funked up DEVO rip is found slapped on the backside, especially for the punk funk freaks. Both versions turn the intensity up a notch, lending themselves perfectly to Temu’s explosive production with slapping bass and heavy percussion. Temu's varied and explorative musical history courses through Hip Hop, Funk and R&B, and has naturally led into inventive new angles for these instantly-recognizable dancefloor bombs.
