Finally getting a vinyl re-release is Frank & Tonys seminal work with breakout duo Bob Moses. Back in 2012 Francis Harris and Anthony Collins worked with their fellow New Yorkers before they went on to sign to Domino and blow up globally.

The four track EP kicks off with “Elea” – a deep and thoughtful collaboration utilizing Frank & Tonys slick production with understated vocals. Next up on the A side is “Holding On”, featuring iconically Bob Moses vocals atop of a low-key bumping groove. Theres also washes of brass that add a new dimension to the track. Flipping over to the B side, “Holy for Her” (which also appeared back in 2012), is a densely wound, hypnotic rhythm, providing the basis for Tom Howie and Jim Vallance to do their special thing. Winding things up, “Marigold” is another early classic from the same period – a dubbed-out groove with sharp percussion and a killer, signature vocal. An essential release capturing a vital period in both outfits’ development.
