Originally released in 2018 as a digital only release, it now sees the physical release it rightly deserves. Produced with his good friend, the acclaimed producer \/ songwriter Frank Dukes, ' Déjàvu' emerged during a period of rest for Matthew after heavy touring schedules with his former band BADBADNOTGOOD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with many of the most fertile creative minds, continual reinvention leads to exploration of new sounds and styles. ' Déjàvu' sees a departure from the jazz of BADBADNOTGOOD and a move into a more song-based storybook, with Matthew stepping up to the plate as lead-vocalist. As Matthew explains\u003cem\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\"I’ve always worked on my own stuff outside of BADBAD, and I’ve made music that sounds like this since I was 16. But when BADBAD started taking off, it was like “Ok, I can’t really make rock-y songwriter music anymore”.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eThe inspiration for the album came after revisiting old favourites and classics such as The Zombies, The Beatles, shoegaze, and Krautrock records. It was also made in a difficult and reflective period in Matthew's life, with each song being a vignette to an individual. \u003cstrong\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eI wrote each song about someone specifically, but then I realised very quickly afterwards that every song is about myself\". \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven though on the surface the record could be loosely categorized in the rock \/ indie camp, its dreamy psych-pop vibe evokes much richer musical inspirations. Elements of jazz, AOR, and the compositions of 'golden-era' Brazilian arrangers such as Arthur Verocai enrich the songs. For the Mr Bongo release of ‘Déjàvu' we have included the beautiful bonus track '\u003cem\u003eVerocai Pt. II’\u003c\/em\u003e which was a product of the same recording sessions and rounds off the record. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough a 'solo’ release, with its songwriting, content, and themes being very personal to Matthew, the record is backed by a cast of friends, family, including BADBADNOTGOOD members.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMr Bongo are proud to present yet another sublime record from a unique, gifted, and necessary voice in contemporary music. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9Xejzv0obcs\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SAtSkTsC0HQ\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bev2BSFweYc\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Matty (Matthew Tavares)","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP BLACK","offer_id":58738489655680,"sku":"MRBLP207","price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vinyl LP RED","offer_id":58738489688448,"sku":"MRBLP207R","price":10.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":58738489721216,"sku":"MRBCD207","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/1384\/1792\/files\/mrblp207-Matty-Dejavu-square.jpg?v=1787214630","url":"https:\/\/vinylvers.com\/products\/dejavu-vinyl-lp-cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
