Lightspeed Champion - 'Tell Me What It's Worth'

Lightspeed Champion - 'Tell Me What It's Worth'

Taking the name he adorned upon his imaginary childhood comic strip hero, Devonte Hynes has taken the bold step of going solo since his former band Test Icicles called it a day. His latest single 'Tell Me What It's Worth', taken from his debut album 'Falling Off The Lavender Bridge', draws upon Hynes constantly wandering mind and eclectic nocturnal subject matter. With a diverse instrumental composition, thanks in part to the inclusion of a multitude of playing partners that feature on Hynes tracks, the resulting one hundred and sixty three seconds is a beautifully melancholic semi-acoustic number littered with personal references and hidden meanings that resonate with a country-rock edge.

Released 14/01/08 on Domino.
