Raf Rundell Shares New Track “Monsterpiece”
Last seen a couple of years back on his debut LP�Stop Lying,�Raf Rundell�emerges from his Forest Hill bunker with�”Monsterpiece”,�a joyful, larger than life,�good-time party anthem.
His first release for�Heavenly Recordings, the former 2 Bear, renowned DJ, and all round, man-about-town, said of this first taster from his forthcoming second album:�
“Time for new JAMS. Under the light of a silver moon we work on our Monsterpieces. One Blockhead, one Stepkid, a Showboy and a Culpepper. Never knowingly undersoul’d we step unblinkingly into the future. O.M.DAYS.”�

A chance meeting with Chas led to a blossoming friendship and it wasn’t long before he came to the studio one day proclaiming to have something for Raf.�“I tried hard to be Ian Dury,”�explained Raf,�“but realized I couldn’t. So I tried my best in a different way, and here we are.“�
Featuring a striking Keith Haring meets the Green Man inspired cover from acclaimed artist and long-time collaborator�Ben Edge, “Monsterpiece”�also includes�vocal contributions from�Joel Culpepper�and�Show Boy
