The third installment in \u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/publicrelease.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_new\"\u003ePublic Release\u003c\/a\u003e's\u003c\/b\u003e outstanding and well-liked Private Release picture disc series (Vol. 2 can be found \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/igetrvng.com\/shop\/70\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e) launches the focus from out of NYC and into the Parisiosphere, which is totally welcome since after all, this is a San Francisco-based label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut really, what a wonderful pairing they've got this time around, with \u003cb\u003eJoie Noire\u003c\/b\u003e on Side A, and his more recognizable alter ego \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/blackjoy2000\"\u003eBlackjoy\u003c\/a\u003e on the B (hence the Jekyll'd out title). In this case, \u003cb\u003eA stands for acid\u003c\/b\u003e, as we are treated to a bubbling techno concoction named \u003cb\u003e\"Games\"\u003c\/b\u003e, which features liberal melodies that don't feel the need to start and stop where they might be expected to do so. Any objections to that? \"Shut your mouth\". You'll understand if you pick up this 12\", which if you haven't already, you can now. \u003cb\u003eSide B\u003c\/b\u003e revisits Blackjoy's \u003cb\u003e\"Secrets\"\u003c\/b\u003e track off of his 2010 \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eErotis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e album, which appears in an extended form here. That is a great thing, since \u003cb\u003ethe groove on this cut is most tantalizing.\u003c\/b\u003e Quite happy he decided to stretch this one out. Definitely not as tecque'd up as the A, but a familiar funky sound for which BJ is known, as evidenced on the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/lucienent.com\/\"\u003eLucien Ent.\u003c\/a\u003e site (song snippets galore).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, yet another perfect picture disc that reminds us all that \u003cb\u003ewe can have our steak and eat it too!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PR003","offers":[{"title":"12\" - $18","offer_id":13130854826053,"sku":"PR003LP","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/6993\/6709\/products\/p-5525-85_prvol3_sidea_500.jpg?v=1535219001","url":"https:\/\/igetrvng.com\/products\/the-jekyll-ep-joie-noire-blackjoy","provider":"RVNG Intl.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
