Bordeaux beatmakers Smokey Joe & The Kid are back with a new single Please Come Home <\/em>ahead of a new album and tour, which will see them play Glastonbury in the summer.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A furious mash-up of hip hop, jazz and electro swing, the single highlights the Gallic duo’s talent for blending a smorgasbord of sounds into a stomping floor filler.<\/p>\n

The accompanying video doesn’t disappoint either, vaguely reminiscent of The Prodigy<\/strong>‘s controversial promo for\u00a0Smack My Bitch Up,\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>it starts innocently enough, with the \u00a0boys filming themselves on a mobile phone.<\/p>\n

But when then the device is ‘jacked – as I believe the young people say – by a trio of teenage hoodlums, all manner of shenanigans ensue. Be sure to check it out below.<\/p>\n

P<\/strong>lease Come Home\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is the first cut from the band’s new album\u00a0Running At The Moon,<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0released in the UK on May 6 on\u00a0Banzai Lab<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The album features contributions from the likes of\u00a0Fred Wesley, Pigeon John, ASM, Chill Bump, Blake Worrell, Youthstar, Charles X, Yoshi, Ua Tea, NON Genetic and DJ Netik<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
