Port-Royal are named after my favourite Caribbean takeaway in Chapeltown, Leeds (well actually, they're from Italy so that's a big fat lie....) and have served up a delicious double vinyl edition of their splendid 'Afraid to Dance' album. Drifting, moving, spellbinding, meaty, drifty, beaty & aromatic. Just buy it, it's really lush OK!!!!

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

      
"afraid to dance" is the second album by port-royal. it was released on CD by resonant records in summer 2007 and now we offer a different version of the album on 2x12" vinyl including an alternative version of the song "deca-dance" and a remix of "roliga timmen" by dergar.

port-royal's music is located at the border of electronica, ambient and postrock, but with "afraid to dance" they also make a first step towards - yes! - dance music, and we love that: beautiful melodies, captivating beats and a pleasantly drowning ocean of sound.
