One of the hands-down head-bangers of Makaya McCraven’s 2018 release "Where We Come From (CHICAGOxLONDON Mixtape)" was bubbling London-based producer/composer Emma-Jean Thackray’s contributed track, “Too Shy.” Slotted into the B-side of the DJ-style suite, Makaya’s finishing touch on the mixtape format of the collection meant that we would miss the full extension of Thackray’s work – which was intended, as she originally made it, to run a minute longer than it does on "Where We Come From," and also include a half-time bonus beat outro.
It was only right to team up with our Chicago-based family and bring you this absolute banger on a very limited edition, beautiful piece of 12" wax.
The B-Side of this 12” is a smoking re-work of another cut from the original CHICAGOxLONDON Mixtape, “Run ‘Dem,” courtesy of the one and only Gilles Peterson!
