Don Letts: Outta Sync

Outta Sync is a heady cocktail of dubbed-out, bass-heavy rhythms, island vibes 'n' spoken word juxtaposed with melodic hooks and harmonies. The album is exactly what you'd anticipate a Don Letts project to sound like. "Outta Sync," the title track, is also notable as one of a few songs that can introduce such a storied life within a single verse: "Now, because of my duality, raised on pop and bass, didn't really bother me, 'cause it's all about the taste, I'm the vinyl generation, and that's how I got my start, combining clothes and music, and I turned it into art." And that's just the introduction! Don goes on to reflect upon the changing world around him and his own shifting perceptions.

Featuring eleven mostly self-written tracks, Outta Sync reflects Letts' myriad tastes and interests, as well as his unique worldview. It also highlights an intriguing array of guests: the legendary Terry Hall of The Specials, The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne makes an appearance, as does lovers rock queen Hollie Cook. Don co-wrote the song "Situationist" with Zoe Devlin Love, previously of Alabama 3. Keeping it in the family is Don's daughter Honor, who sings on the sitar-studded electronic groove "Civilization." Gaudi complements all this playing piano and synthesizers across the entire album. Collectively, it's a snapshot of who Don Letts really is in the here and now. Letts says, "For better or worse this is me, although I ain't saying I've got it down, as the lyrics in the single's chorus readily acknowledge. Ultimately the album's a soundtrack to my mind with some cool bass lines, mirroring the sum total of my cultural journey and reflecting the duality of my existence, which is Black and British."
