Till The Doctor Gets Back

Joel Martin and Matt 'Radio Slave' Edwards' Quiet Village project is back on their imprint The Quiet Village with 'Till The Doctor Gets Back', a characteristically spaced-out cover of a 1982 Barry Reynolds song 'Till The Doctor Gets Back', which features their first ever commissioned remix, having tapped Mad Professor. The duo's latest release from their eponymous imprint is a love letter to the early-80s sound of Island Records. Recorded in 2024, Quiet Village's 'Till The Doctor Gets Back' evokes the spirit of the 1982 original, a release born out of a period when reggae, dub, pop, rock, and dance music were colliding. QV's version is exactly what the duo have been known for since their beginnings in 2005: unhurried, immersive, and utterly compelling. With reverb and delays firmly on the 'dub' bus, the track is shot through with rich synths, glorious overlapping melodies, and a fresh vocal interpretation. Mad Professor's dub slow burns, doubles down on the dub aesthetics, and embraces the source material wholly, resulting in a cosseting yet invigorating listen.
