New Zealand left-field R&B group Electric Wire Hustle features <a href="spotify:artist:3GzJfrTYqGHMASNHNNN7hN">Mara TK</a> (vocals, guitar, turntables, production), David “Taay Ninh” Wright (multiple instruments), and <a href="spotify:artist:1UC8QBhdrzQGgnGPcdEMDd">Myele Manzanza</a> (drums). Presumably named after a track off <a href="spotify:artist:2GHclqNVjqGuiE5mA7BEoc">Common</a>’s 2002 album Electric Circus, the trio formed in 2007. They debuted two years later on Japan’s Wonderful Noise label with a 12” single that showcased their skillful balance between songcraft and abstract sound design. Its B-side featured vocals from <a href="spotify:artist:5IcRvSiReLydKCr56ObWuX">Steve Spacek</a> -- the first in a series of collaborations with R&B underground contemporaries. By the end of 2009, they had released a self-titled album on their Every Waking Hour label in NZ and had become favorites of BBC DJs <a href="spotify:artist:4fH73bVIwM24QrBqjTrhAA">Gilles Peterson</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4mpLJD9638UiwarAxd3Igg">Benji B</a>. The <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22BBE%22">BBE</a> label licensed the album for widespread release in 2010. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
