Seeger’s haunting vocals are set against Broadcaster’s powerful backdrop of swaggering beats and snarling guitars to provide an darkly satisfying and unexpectedly moving twist. ‘Bad Bad Girl’ was originally transcribed from an Alan Lomax recording of Ozella Jones in Florida State Prison in 1936. Hot Dubstep producer Bluze has created a deep and soulful remix that vibrates with barely supressed menace, while the South London Mix has an urban skank influence. Doktor Musik’s DJ Mix reveals a starkness that is perfect for club play.
‘Folksploitation’ has been shortlisted for the Genre Spotlight Award at the 2012 AIM Independent Music Awards.
