This Is How You Do It is The Bamboos 11th studio album and shows that the nine piece Melbourne Funk & Soul trailblazers continue to evolve even after 23 years together as a band. The album contains some surprise turns, such as the Boogie / Disco tinged first single "Ex-Files" featuring the band's longtime vocalist Kylie Auldist, and features guest MCs from the US (Ozay Moore and Ohmega Watts) and New Zealand (KINGS). Also guesting on two tracks is Melbourne vocalist Reginald AK, who just happens to be the Kylie's son.
What might sound on paper to be a new direction for the band makes total sense once you recognise the trademark combination of Lance Ferguson's Soul powered production style, their effortless groove and Kylie Auldist's incredible voice.

lyrics

Times on my mind
When I had you by my side
Am I thinking aloud
Do I want you around?
Stars in my eyes
You’re in rose coloured disguise
And I got to decide
Should I let you inside?

Yeah you been good
Never been real
You were just there when i needed affection
You were no good
It was unreal
It was like everything i wanted to feel

Gotta let me have one more time here

We crossed a line
But it’s not like it’s a crime
To get lost in your eyes
Enjoy being alive
You made me shine
So i guess it’s no surprise
That you’re still on my mind
Can i get one more ride?

Yeah you been good
Never been real
You were right there to provide a distraction
You were no good
It was unreal
It was like everything I wanted to feel

Gotta let me have one more time here

Find the time
Find the time to see me
Find the time
I’m coming around

Gotta let me have one more time here
