Instead You Go
Background:
Tres Gueros are three brooklynites led by the amorphous producer, Sleazy McQueen. Pulling together a joint group of different but like-minded artists, Sleazy wanted to create a different sound than the usual house tracks. Instead You Go was the result. The vinyl release includes remixes from top nu disco names Anthony Mansfield and Neighbour, as well as newcomer to the scene Dave Allison. The digital package will include a bonus track from Sleazy McQueen, Leon Louder and a Dave Allison instrumental. The release will be out late April on wax and available at stores digitally shortly thereafter.
The contest:
With the success of combination of talent that went into the track, it only makes sense to open up the visual representation of the music to newcomers and fresh insights.
