Yumi Zouma is set to drop a limited new 12" that collects all the New Zealand group's hits — including both of their stellar, now-sold-out EPs, along with that beautiful Air France collab/cover, and the previously unreleased "Right, Off the Bridge" — on one very fancy deluxe vinyl package (pictured above). The first 500 records come on translucent vinyl with "blue haze"

Yumi Zouma came out of nowhere early this year with an EP of softly shimmering, twilit dream-disco that was so pitch-perfect (right down to the cover art; some might even suggest it was 'custom-built' for us) that it almost felt like it was destined to be a fluke, a debut that was surely the result of some kind of serendipitous long-distance magic that a young group has trouble ever recapturing.
