An EP titled ‘Strong Team’ has been released by Joey T and Tee Mango through SUPERUNKNOWN. The pair met when Joey T attended a mentoring program run by Tee and SUPERUNKNOWN is a platform for highlighting artists from the program. On the EP, Joey T takes the lead track ‘When You’re Not On My Mind (WYNOMM)’, bringing in some classic and loose house energy. Tee Mango, on the other hand, is responsible for the remix of the track as well as the creation of two other final tracks showcasing a left-leaning electronica style.
When Joey T was asked about his contribution, he explained that “The original demo is actually a lot older than my recent releases; shout out to my friend and collaborator on those, Lady Lady and the labels that supported us, Mas O Menos and Sprechen.” He went on to explain how a friend reminded him of a rough MP3 of an early version of the track that he had forgotten about. The two of them then finished the track and it became something that would get people moving during his sets when he as on the road.
Tee Mango mentored Joey T via the “Finish Your F**king Tunes” program and he asked Joey what he had been making. ‘WYNOMM’ happened to be in a private Soundcloud playlist of things Joey had been creating, and Tee Mango really enjoyed it. The release of the EP tied in nicely with a lot of the stuff that was learned on the program.
The “Strong Team” EP is a reminder that new music is emerging and Manchester is an important player in that field. It is available now and a link can be found on SUPERUNKNOWN’s bandcamp page
