In March 2021, actor/musician/DJ and record label boss Idris Elba joined Australian chart-topping duo Lime Cordiale on stage for an explosive, surprise performance of Unnecessary Things. Now, they reunite to share their jaunty new single Apple Crumble, alongside their forthcoming mini album, Cordi Elba, available via Chugg Music and 7Wallace Music.
Recorded in Sydney this year while Idris was in town shooting a movie, Apple Crumble is a pure art collision between Lime Cordiale and Idris Elba. Directed and produced by Joe Neathway, the visual accompaniment takes viewers into a kaleidoscopic, freewheeling animated kingdom. “We only just managed to record everything we needed before Idris flew back to the UK, says Oli Leimbach of the clip. “When it came to the music video, we decided to do it from afar. We took a range of photos and recruited Joe Neathway Brown to bring them to life. We’ve worked with Joe plenty of times but with this new collaboration, we decided to go with this different collage-style animation. This animation takes you into our minds and follows the story of our song Apple Crumble.”
Lime Cordiale and Idris Elba’s partnership began when Lime Cordiale asked if Idris wanted to guest on a new version of Lime Cordiale’s Unnecessary Things – a song that first surfaced on the Relapse reissue of their 2020 No.1 album 14 Steps To A Better You. Idris did his research and was instantly sold. “I listened to them on Spotify, fell in love with them very quickly,” he says. The Luther, The Wire, Thor, The Suicide Squad and Mandela star didn’t know it, but he was already in Lime Cordiale’s orbit – the duo regularly blasted Idris’ 2019 hit Boasty backstage before each show. Once the new version of Unnecessary Things was finished, this new partnership hit a creative streak and they kept on making more songs with Lime Cordiale’s longtime producer/co-writer David K Haddad.
On Boasty, Idris raps that he doesn’t need a ghostwriter. Indeed, Cordi Elba is a genuine creative collaboration with Oli, Louis and Dave. “We wrote everything together,” Oli says. “We were all writing lyrics – it wasn't our music or his music, it was smack bang down the middle with every lyric.”
“I wanted to collaborate,” Idris adds. “We agreed about the vibe and the song was there. They were really open to ideas; it was an opportunity for me to write songs I normally wouldn’t write. Ultimately, this is a step into a new universe musically for me.”

When ordering online you really want to make sure you trust a company especially with beloved albums and that's why I am taking time out of my day to recommend this company. I salute you for the work you do to make me happy!

Maya Jane Coles - Take Flight 3LP box set
Sent In By: Dave on 24 April 2024Well priced and super quick dispatch. Arrived in a sturdy mailer, complete with an oversized outer jacket for the box set, which saved me having to source that separately, and one inner sleeve. Although three inner sleeves would have been perfect (since there were 3 LPs) it was still much appreciated. Not many Sellers include either of those accessories. So all told, a very positive buying experience. Recommended, and i will be buying more LPs in future.
