Some­thing for the dance floor: a radi­ant new sin­gle called Mid­night Lover by the Lon­don-based mul­ti-instru­men­tal­ist Le Junk. With spo­ken word vocals, this slinky num­ber, which came out on 12th August, pow­ers along with a dri­ving bass and a cho­rus you’ll want to sing along to. His lyrics are “strewn with sto­ries of sleazy mis­de­meanours and dark­ly sar­don­ic humour” mak­ing it all sound even more interesting.

Mid­night Lover dis­plays some of the out-there swag­ger of Con­fi­dence Man. And div­ing into Le Junk’s pre­vi­ous num­bers reveals a col­lec­tion of sim­i­lar­ly addic­tive, dis­co-slant­ed numbers.

Hav­ing pre­vi­ous­ly front­ed acts Eigh­teen Night­mares at the Lux and Big & The Fat, Le Junk part­ed ways with those projects with the idea of cre­at­ing new mate­r­i­al under a solo moniker. He sur­faced amidst the may­hem of 2020 as Le Junk and debuted his solo sin­gle Rich Romance – it has shades of Fujiya & Miya­gi in its whis­pered vocals over a dri­ving beat.

Le Junk has recent­ly begun to play live, next show:
