{"product_id":"zen147","title":"Yppah - They Know What Ghost Know","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoe Corrales, Jr. aka Yppah (pronounced 'Yippah') is back. The young Mexican-American from Texas debuted on Ninja Tune in 2006 with his album 'You Are Beautiful At all Times', and now releases his sophomore effort 'They Know What Ghost Know'.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFashioning a rockier sound than last time out, the album draws on a cultural heritage that took in My Bloody Valentine alongside hip hop and which is heavily influenced by various forms of electronic music, psychedelic soul and rock.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eOpening track 'Son Saves The Rest' is wall-of-noise guitar pummeller. 'Gumball Machine Weekend' sounds like southern-fried Go! Team with more soul. 'Playing With Fireworks' somehow reminds you of the way you felt stuck between childhood and the adult world, not a million miles from instrumental tracks from the Phantom Band. 'Shutter Speed' is nostalgia psyched into a memorable tune. Title track 'They Know What Ghost Know' is West Coast rock reimagined as trance-rite, a spooky, echo-heavy drum-roll-filled set of repetitions and overlaps that builds into a tune which DJ Shadow in his heyday might have dreamed of making. 'Sun Flower Sun Kissed' takes the doomy grey skies of MBV and gives them a Texan make-over. 'Bobbie Joe Wilson' channels the Dust Brothers and proves Yppah hasn’t lost his love of hip hop. Corrales build moods through a combination of melody, rhythm and sonics and if those moods are mainly melancholy, they’re also ecstatic.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eAfter a series of shows last year from SXSW to Japan, there’s a real feeling that Joe Corrales is ready to step up into the big league. The album has that feel to it – that it has been made under huge skies, that it’s possible to make music which is epic and intimate all at once. It’s beguiling and beautiful and makes you a little giddy, too. Find out what Ghost know.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ninjatune","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44934186991775,"sku":"ZENCD147","price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Japanese CD","offer_id":44934187024543,"sku":"BRC227","price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/8563\/5999\/products\/they-know-what-ghost-know-main.jpg?v=1736246682","url":"https:\/\/merch.ninjatune.net\/products\/zen147","provider":"Ninja Tune","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
