The Rainwater LP is Citizen Cope’s fourth studio album, released 8 February 2010 on Amazon MP3, and digitally released elsewhere on 9 February 2010, and due in-stores on 2 March 2010.

The album is produced by Cope (Clarence Greenwood) and it is the first record released under his own record label – RainWater Recordings Inc. He explained the reason for releasing it himself: “I kept hearing things like ‘Retail’s gonna need you to do this,’ or ‘The artwork has to be like this.’ I don’t want to be led into those confines anymore. I want to be able to do it my own way.”The album’s title is partially a reference to the commoditization of music, with musicians contractually obliged to provide a certain number of “LP”s; Cope stated “Now I’m not obligated to any record company, so I thought it was a nice play on that.”The album was recorded between Brooklyn Recording (Cobble Hill, Brooklyn) and The Document Room (Malibu, CA) during the course of 2009 and in between Cope’s extensive touring.

Groove Armada’s original I Won’t Kneel track

This track has been floating around for a while, but with the immanent release (February ??) its good to get it back into circulation to hype it back up. It is a very upbeat track with a cool back beat and bubbly vocals.

I Won’t Kneel Bloody Beetroot Remix

Here is a Bloody Beetroot remix of I Won’t Kneel, it is not to heavy hitting but it adds a bit of crunch into the song to make it a bit more club/dance worthy.
