The Part Time Heroes deliver their debut release on Mums The Word, although you may recognise their name from the PTH Projects 12" on Wah Wah earlier this year. Drawing comparisons to St.Germain, Cinematic Orchestra, and Zero 7 this EP is an exciting, eclectic and fresh journey over different tempos, incorporating live instrumentation, deep jazz roots, folk and organic soul nourishing goodness. Stunning opening track ´Realise´ features the sublime vocal talents of regular heroes vocalist Jono McCleery riding a tide of widescreen jazz. The instrumental ´Brandon Heights´ is awash with riffs, building with piano, bass, flute and brass to a culmination of merging melody lines. 2006 BBC ´Jazz Vocalist Of The Year´ Liane Carroll guests on the swinging upbeat ´Shadowlands´ while Lucy Kitchen sings the blues on the down-tempo, cinematic ´All This Time´. No B-sides here – all the tracks stand up on their own as singular pieces of aural art. "Highly rate them, watch out for them." Gilles Peterson
