Under the Radar: Yip Man
Boasting an aptitude for edgy pop which could be likened to earlier Blur if Davy Henderson (of Fire Engines, Win and The Nectarine No. 9 fame) were on vocals, his latest album was partly written while working in China. Entitled Pure Zen, Ken? it boasts a variety of sounds while still managing to remain engaging and listenable.
Released on 6 September, both on vinyl and CD, it won’t be accompanied by any live shows. However, both formats come free with a mindfulness colouring book and a set of pencils. For more info check out www.yipman.bandcamp.com/album/pure-zen-ken
