James Yuill - No Pins Allowed (Moshi Moshi)
By: Dan Monsell
Electro-acoustic-o supreme-o James Yuill is releasing his first single on Moshi Moshi records this month, and this here's a lofi-piece of video magic to accompany it.
Last time around, we said his previous (four star) single 'No Surprise' was: "introspective and courageous; melancholy and full of zest...it catches expectations off guard and challenges the boundaries of formulaic song writing with its playful and heroic nature."
This time, 'No pins allowed' brings things into an intense realm of almost trance-like electronica; with emotional acoustic song writing still firmly at its heart. No doubt Yuill is clearly a talent on the rise. Check out the nice little video below:
